New from Indiana
Hello,
New Guy here. I just picked up a 1986 C10 short bed 2wd. It is going to be my daily driver, as well as tow vehicale for my 1988 IROC and 1967 Firebird convertible. The truck was a 4.3, but it started knocking, so they swaped in a used 350. It has a th 400 tranny, did have air, but the compressor and lines are gone now. A couple small rust holes, but the bed is solid, and the doors still close well and do not sag! The seat has no rips, and inside looks pretty good. I am going to lower it, add some 17" ralleys, a good stereo, and repaint it. I will eventually build a hyd. roller cammed 350 and swap an overdrive tranny, most likely a th700R4. What do you think, I only paid $900 for it, so I think its a good deal! http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b3...8/IM000706.jpg http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b3...8/IM000708.jpg I added the K&N filter. http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b3...8/IM000710.jpg |

I can't see the pics, all I get are red X's, but that's not uncommon for me.
Welcome to the board anyway. New Albany is Southern Indiana, right? I'm in Tell City right now on a temporary assignment. |

Anyone else not seeing the pics?
Yes, New Albany is southern INdiana, right across the river from Louisville, KY. |
Re: New from Indiana
Yeah, That's right where I was thinking.

Re: New from Indiana
Greetings. Looks like you did pretty good for $900. I paid $1500 for a 86 GMC in similar shape right before Christmas. Mine has a tired 4.3 and a beat interior. Found mine on Ebay and drove 1/2 hr south of Louisville to pick it up.

Welcome from West Tennessee. You done good on your truck. Nice camaro too. But that 55 is my pick of the litter. I gave up on ever having another one and settled for a 72 nova. Good luck on your truck.

Re: New from Indiana
Yeah, the 55 is real fun. I just can't wait to try it out with the new tranny and rear gear set up. Will post pics with the front in the air as soon as the track opens!
