Lost my 70 K10 Camper Special...
 
Well, actually, I sold it 22 years ago...one of those 'dumbest things I've ever done' moments. 383 Stroker, 3.07 gears, TH350, Front Disc brake conversion..it was a beast.

So...fast forward to now. Still play with cars, and drive an SUV, but want to add a truck to the garage.

Not exactly sure where this leg of the journey will take me, but figure this is a good place to hang out with the homies and figure it out.

Nuclear Industry and Submarine Veteran...I can't get lost cause I glow in the dark. :)

Welcome aboard from one sub vet to another! Keep an eye on the classifieds for another truck. I also like to watch Bring a Trailer auctions.

Based on the timeframe, sounds like you may have come after the 41 for Freedom group.

Chemical Industry...ELT?
