I was raised just southeast of Omaha, in Glenwood, Iowa. I have since joined the Navy, and haven't had a chance to bring any of my toys back to that neck of the woods. I have a 1971 M817 that I use in Norfolk, VA for a tree service company I run outside of the Navy. I might just have to look you up when I make it back home this next time. Quaker Steak & lube has a good classic car night that my father and many of his friends show at every week.
I won't be back home for a little while, though. I'm currently deployed out on board the USS Emory S. Land (AS-39 submarine tender), which is in port in the Philippines at the moment. I'm shooting to be back home sometime before Christmas, though.
Anyway, welcome from another native Midwesterner!
