New to the site! Canadian guy building a 63 LWB Fleet

[Canadian63GMC]

Thought i'd introduce myself, I live in Dryden Ontario and in my small 24x28 garage i am building a 1963 GMC long box fleet side. Has original v6 305 with 3 speed in it but am going a different route with the restoration/engine/stance as i want a vintage style hot-rod. Purchased the truck in July 2020 and have no date or time line to finish it, just a nice project to work on. I have to young children so finding time can be tough. I have never mig welded before nor done any type of restoration but I am an aircraft mechanic with a little bit of know how so i am learning as i go... Quick learner and already almost have the cab rust free with new floor pans, rockers, A pillars, kick panels, and cab corners on both sides. I'm always in the process of buying new tools and equipment to make the restoration easier. So far so GOOD! So this is me and i'm sure i'll be participating in the forums more than just lurking like I have been!
