So far I've found one very old license plate, a lot of nails, some funky green pennies and other misc. change.. but who's counting? I'm just here to have fun, giggle, and make friends along the way!

Welcome to TQ! ....have you checked under the back seat of that fine looking ride for silver coins? My dad once bought 2 1957 Chevrolets at the same time - and I remember finding several silver coins....of course, I was a kid and promptly spent them!

Good luck and happy hunting!

Default Thanks for the welcome

Thanks for the warm welcome and comments and hope to have lots of new finds to post in the future. I enjoy getting out in the weather except for cold rain everything else give me a shout and I'm ready to go.

Going to the Your Finds page to show the trade token with its information. Because its an actual piece of local history it has become my favorite find.

Glad you all like the old Chevy started building on it 15 years ago and don't think it will ever be finished like they say a work in progress. It has been like the picture for 8 years now and want to put power windows and cruise control on it this winter if I get around to it.

Use an Whites XLT to hunt with and have had it long enough to start messing with the adjustments, its been fun so far.

Remember the old saying ( The only difference between men and boys is the price of there toys.)

Later Jim
