Default Hello Everybody

Good evening all,
I found this site with a google search and am pleased with its appearance. I have recently been posting on a start-up board but it appears that the administrator has lost interest so I am looking for a new home.
Now for the meat and potatoes, I own a 67 Chevelle that I have had since I was 15 its been 18 years since then and I am still working on her. The car sat for eight years when I was in the military and has been back in my care for 7 years. During this time, I have begun massive rebuilding due to severe rot and mileage.
I separated from the military in 2007 and maintained a job in building maintenance for a Lowe's distribution center for a few years. I have since, focused on education and graduated this spring. I begin grad school in the fall but have the summer off. I am using this summer to work on the car almost exclusively and am planning to have it in primer before August 15th. Anyway, I look forward to talking with you guys more later.
Cheers,
Nathan

Yeah I can imagine. Actually that is what I am anticipating. I can't hardly wait to be able to fix or change things as I see fit when I want. Right now all of this body work is driving me nuts. I'm a mechanic for goodness sake, I don't know anything about metal work lol.

Welcome Nathan. Although I have a 70 I'm a real fan of the '67s too. Hope we can help with your project.

Thanks for your service to our country.

Welcome Nathan, first I have to say Thank you for your service. Second, I would love to see more pics of your car. Me, I am a '72 owner. I would love another Chevelle and would probably look at something older.
