When at the Homepage for this website, scroll down towards the bottom. In the center of the page you will see the States listed. Click on GA and it will take you there. But i have included a link, so all you have to do is click on it.

Re: Members in the Atlanta Ga area

Here are a couple.
Nothing special 1970 C20 LWB.
One thing I can say for the truck is it has very little rust.
It has surface rust but only the rockers have 2 small holes.About pencil size and the core support is rotten.
Otherwise great.350 smokes but runs great.
Crate motor or rebuild next spring.
I will probably go crate as the motor in it is not original.
If the numbers matched I would build it.

Re: Members in the Atlanta Ga area

what a/c did you get? this is my next purchase. i am curious to know how the install goes.

the guys that did my exhaust are Pat and Dan. they actually work at the kennesaw G&S location, off 41. i supplied the headers, x, and mufflers, he charged $300 for pipe and labor. he even painted the entire system silver when he was done.
