Re: New from KCMO

Well right now biggest priority is stopping the rust in rockers before it gets too bad and into the floorboards. The truck only has 113k. The engine and trans were gone through at 107k. When I bought the truck plans were to make it a nice street machine but then I noticed the highlander thing when I got it home and the fact of #'s matching so may just keep it stock. I guess I'll just keep driving and thinking about it for now.

You're wallet isnt going to drain at all with an attitude like that. Think of the economy!!

Nice truck - always the best way to start out. Lots of good used parts around the KC area.

No not "the" reverend, just a big fan. Good to see someone out there that knows who he is, not too many catch the name. I dont have any screen names on any sites. I used this screen name a while back in a certain game that my buddy kept pushing me to play. Wish I would have never signed up for it, didnt see the sun for a year or so . It was the first thing that popped into mind when I signed up.
