New guy in Victoria, TX

[shawn77901]

Hey everyone just wanted to introduce myself. I live out in big vic, TX and have never owned an MV. I am highly interested in learning more about them and would like to eventually buy an M35 or possibly trady my motorcycle for one if I can find the strength to let go! lol.

Welcome to the club. It's been a while since I've been down to Victoria, so I don't recall how long the drive is. But if you ever get up to Austin, the Lone Star MVPA (lonestar-mvpa.org)meets the 3rd Wednesday of every month. If that's too far, there are clubs in Houston and San Antonio, also. If there's ever anything we can do to help you out, let us know.

Welcome. There is a Dodge parts dealer in Victoria, his name is Sid and he lives on Raisen rd off 59. He has a WWII Chevy I'm sure he would love to show you. If you want a M35, now is the perfect time because the trucks being sold in San Antonio are going really cheap. Search "Ft Sam Deuces".

wow thanks for the great info guys! reloader64: Victoria is actually in sort of a hub between Houston, Austin and San Antonio- each are only about 1.5-2 hours away. Corpus Christi is even closer. I might just have to check out that meeting, sounds fun!

Welcome - a couple of things:

It is a disease - one year ago, I had trailer. Today I have 6 CUCVs, 1 m715, two trailers and looking for more.

Get a really big yard that the neighbors can't see into.

Consider camo against air surveillance

OPCON and I are in the Big D area.

Cheers.
