thats facebook. all of facebook. that is also why i posted the link to the forum. facebook is for children or chevy colorado owners.
I have gotten a lot of help on the FB Tri five group and the Colorado R32 bunch is great so I think it depends on the type of group you are joining.

Not only that, but it depends on the demographics of the group you want to join. I would think the Tri five group would tend to be older and not have such an attitude.

The Colorado R32 bunch is very young but a very nice group. One of the Admins is a tech at one of the better VW dealers in the area and has been a big help to me learning all the new tech in my car.

This is a pic of him with another member's dog at a get-together we had a couple of weeks ago. We hit a bad pothole that bottomed out the suspension and broke the plastic tank on our radiator. We had the car towed to the dealer in Ft. Collins and rusty picked us up, took us back to the picnic in Loveland, then gave us a ride home after.

I’m on ‘tri five Chevy trucks’ group on Facebook, same 1 that you are in?

I joined ‘p15-d24.com’ forums for the dodges/Desoto but haven’t posted anything yet.

I haven’t joined any forums for the IHC, since it’s really only IHC in appearance.
I did get a nice set of interior handles from a member of the ihc Facebook group along with the data sheet to pin point the year. I’ll need that when I go back to the DMV for the last time and see if they will give me a title. Until then the amount of money being invested in this truck is near nil, just throwing all my pieces together so it counts as a ‘complete vehicle.’

I belong to several but all cars.






The last one is because if I ever sell my 57 it will be to buy a 55 210 Handyman.

I had to drag this thing to another new house, this 1 has a sweet acre of land I can collect Junk on without the city getting after me.

It fired up! but I guess that isn't too remarkable since the S10 was running before I took it apart.

I also got all the going stopping and steering stuff working again. I Just extended the steering shaft and gently rebent some brake lines.

These are videos like the post before no idea if they are posting correctly.

I think it has a connection issue near the tank- it stalls out because the fuel pump is loosing power randomly. Lots of vacuum leaks but should all be resolved just finishing putting it together.

I bought some knock off Harley Davidson 'brow' headlight rings. They don't really fit, I printed some pieces to fill the gap, but I think I'll end up just welding in some metal to make it fit.

I also bought some for my ford taillights, I think I'll be cutting a hole and welding some stuff to make these fit on the rear fenders.
