What's up fellas! Well, I've been lurking the forums and shopping for my first 40 for about 4 months now. I'm excited to have placed a deposit on a truck down in ATL and should have her back here in VB within the next month or so. I really look forward to connecting with some of you and probably bugging the hell out of you all! It's nice to know some local folks are around to help if I need knowledge or a hand.
The truck is a 70', with a 350 conversion, 3spd auto, 4 inch lift on 33's. Its a great starter truck with plenty of room for finishing, but it is a complete package. For me and the family she'll be a once or twice a week driver/garage toy.
As soon as I actually get her in my hands and the deal is 100% complete and to my satisfaction I will DEFINTELY be posting up some pics and trying to possibly meet up with a few of you to introduce myself.
Just stoked about it, so I had to post up! BTW, I am located in Kempsville near Larkspur and work near Lynnhaven. |

| Sounds funny. Going to Atlanta to get a 40. Pour some on the curb for your homies.

| Absolutely! Lol. I'm still trying to figure out how I talked myself into thinking that driving 20 hours was a good idea. | |

| Hey I just got my first 40 last weekend and I'm in Norfolk by the base. I'm not an expert by any means but I'll be glad to lend a hand and get some help myself. Maybe this coming weekend we can meet up.
