LA board newb...
...hey guys. just wanted to give a nod. i've been reading the board for a couple months now... and figured it time to speak up.
i picked up a nice little 67 rust free SWB last month and have been taking care of all the retarded bs that the previous owner did ever since. but... love it regardless. i'll likely start a build thread but for the most part it's going to be a driveway tinker project. either way... this board has been an amazing resource thus far and i'm happy to be a part of it. |

Re: LA board newb...
picked it up off a guy in watts. was SUPPOSED to have an LT1 in it. which... it does not. it in fact has a much older TBI motor in it. which would bother me a WHOLE lot more if i weren't already planning on swapping it out for an LS1.

Re: LA board newb...
from the Heart of Arkansas! We love pics, so in sympathy to the thread that said this post is worthless......, here's a photo version. But, this is the place to get the help you need, when you need it, and also get a pat on the back. Yeah, we like trucks. Don't take offense at this little bit of humor...
