New member in East Texas

I'm a new member, just an 81 year old geezer, retired from the truck design and manufacturing industry several years ago. I've never lost my interest in trucks and sports cars.
My current special interest is a 1991 Ford Ranger XLT ext. cab 3.0L and auto trans. It is very nice condition, but has a few issues which I will likely be looking for some help from you guys with experience with these fine little trucks.
I look forward to activities within "Serious Explorations".
Tom.

Welcome to this forum! What kind of truck design work did you previously do (design body styles, chassis, frame, interior, etc)?

Thanks for the welcome! My career was in the heavy truck industry, mostly diesels, and included all of the above, bumper to bumper. Since retiring I have restored several sports cars, mostly British, but also owned and updated several pickup trucks.
At my age I am beginning to slow down and still enjoy these relatively minor projects.
I hope I may be able to offer some input to some of the forums.
Tom.

Did you use computer aided design when you did this work or did you do this before everything became computerized? Post some pictures of your restoration projects.
