We all like to answer questions and help you on any questions you may have. When I saw your screen name I had a lil chuckle :rofl:

Post by: JoeDirt on October 24, 2015, 02:38:12 PM: Pumashine that thing is killer and with me being a newb and not knowing how to navigate the forum yet I will be asking lots of questions everyone has already asked. So many unbelievable builds on here. I just realized I'm drooling on myself, yeah the name was the first thing that came to mind. I'm Joe and I love the dirt. That's me in a nutshell.

I'm in the mission district in SF. That sounds like a plan Rupp. So with you being from Livermore you would be somewhat familiar with Byron, little town about 15 mins from Disco Bay??
