Newbie from Iowa says Hello

[ridingshotgun]

Hello to all and thanks for this great site. I purchased my first MV this past winter as an "anniversary present" for my wife. It's a 1970 Deuce and she dumps! I bought her with the intention of using around the farm for dump truck work, and now I have kinda gotten into fixing it up. I have learned a lot from you guys and although I am just getting my feet wet, I really value this site. Am sprucing the truck up a little piece at a time. Hopefully in a year or so, I can have a truck that will be a good "using" machine and at the same time be presentable enough to put in the local parades. Here she is on the day I picked her up. Thanks again.

Welcome! Was it a present from your wife, or to her? Congratulations, either way . I keep thinking about converting my bobber to a bobbed dumper.......someday.

Nice score. Your first SS training lesson is to post lots of pictures. Have at it. Carry on.

When school is in, Im out in Ames...

Seth,
It was purchased on the date of our wedding anniversary...so the joke is, that I got it for her anniversary present. I'm pretty sure I got her something else that was more appropriate, but for the life of me, I can't remember what that was!
