Re: New to the forum, and new to trucks.

Thanks for the warm welcome, as well as the links and suggestions on where to find information!

I personally do not have a truck yet, so before i buy a project I want to learn more about them and see if there are any particular differences between the model years and options that would be better to look out for than others.


My father in laws truck is an 83 scottsdale that he bought new, sold, then bought back. He put on a silverado grill and a cowl hood. It is a really pretty truck and looks brand new. its got a 305/700R4







I am glad to see that there are some corvette people here. My car started out as a 350/TH400 and its now a 355/Muncie 4 speed. I have spent the last 5 years in college but now that I'm in the "real world" I hope I will have more time to work on it.

Here is the engine I built. I was pretty proud of that. Its got vortec heads with side bolt valve cover adaptors to make it look retro.
