newbie
hello
my name is kevin i just joined up on here not two weeks ago. i own a 63 fleetside longbed big window. its a california truck that has been beatin to death. my plans for this truck is to put a 572 in it that has around 750-900 hp it also is going to be a straight up racer for all those little imports that want to start something. it need alot of work so any pointers and places to get parts for cheap would help. hopefully this will be a good site for help. thanks for putting up a good site peace out ![]() |
