Title: New guy from Iowa
Post by: tsroark on May 20, 2011, 03:57:39 am

Hi, I'm Tim from Ia.  I maintain and drive an 80 k20 Bonanza, guessing 350k+ and still going.  Been doing some very minor restoration/repair and figured I could find good help here, as well as share some of the little I know.

Funny, the truck was bought almost 10 years ago from a farmer.  I am still finding chunks of corn stalk everywhere.  If only corn was an effective rustproofing agent.

Hi Tim -

Welcome from Alaska.  I used to be your neighbor - I was born and raised in Nebraska.

Post up some pics of your ride when you aren't cleaning out the cornstalks.  lol

I'm sitting here in Council bluffs.

Here's a slightly low quality picture of my truck, the bed is just the perfect height to act as a work surface but a little higher that most people want to lift heavy objects.
