New Guy from NC

[K45]

Hey yall, my name is Kenny. I have been looking on this site off and on for close to a year. now that I am coming close to owning my 1st M1009. I figured I would join and bone up on everything. I am not a stranger to the GM stuff. I have a 79 K5 so the transisition should be pretty smooth. I am also a big VW guy and would really like to get an Iltis but to difficult to get ahold of one.

I currently work for the local government with enviroment issues. I just got engaged this past Easter. I am Appstate Fan as well. I do not know what else to say but Hey and thanks for having me on this site.

If it is where I think it is, it is about 25 min from my house. Here are some pics of my 2 steel soldiers ( more like security guards,but you get the point.)

Welcome, Kenny. I'm less than an hour west of you in Valdese, about 5 minutes from AMGeneral. It seems we have at least one other kenny out this way, or I'm experiencing Deja Vu all over again.

Anyway welcome. Hope to meet you soon.
