Hello from OKC - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

blazer72 · 10-07-2006, 10:29 PM

My dad (guy51usa) told me about this site. I've been a fan of 67-72s since about age 12. Owned a 69 short step, a 70 long fleet, and a 72 K5 Blazer. Sold them all for various reasons (wife) -except the short step, which was stolen while being stored. Now, I've bought 3 short wheelbase trucks and a jimmy and intend to rebuild one at a time. I hope to have one of every body style from 67-72. I know, I know - lots of money. But, a man can dream, and I don't plan on building rome in a day. I plan on making the K5 jimmy a 2WD. I plan on eventually building a 67-72 fleetside duelly, rollback, tow truck/wrecker, and extended cab. None of these will be show worthy, just decent looking and dependable trucks.

Ok guys, now that I'm here, how do I post past/current vehicles like everyone else, and is there a way to save my "hello from OKC" blog for instant access to monitor replies. Any help greatly appreciated.
