Newbie
Just wanted to say I have been checking out your posts for quite some time, but. I haven't had a c10 until recently so I didn't feel right joining until now! Thanks for all your guys ( and gals) information and opinions!
Here is my ride, '71 (if I attached it right) |

Re: Newbie
It has a 406 sb, 350th, 3:73 rear end, b&m shifter...I can get some more pics later, but here is the back end, in the parking lot (little bit better light, maybe) and under the bonnet.

Re: Newbie
Nice ride! But boy I think a white painted roof would set that truck off big time. I'd be dropping it off somewhere to have the roof scuffed and shot white. But to each his own...just my $.02 ;-)

Re: Newbie
Thanks. The two things on the list right now are add an A/C init( any recommendations are welcome, it is a non-ac cab). Second are new rims and tires...he has some race star with the Micky Thompson street drag tires that are in great shape, but I will eventually trade them... Maybe get some Boss 338? But would love some opinions on both...

Re: Newbie
I can tell by your user name and the color of your truck that you are a wise man! Mine is going orange and black for the same reason. This is a great place for info as you probably already know. Nice looking truck too. Go Pokes!

Get ahold of Kyle for a Vintage Air system. He is out in Mcloud. He and Sarah will make you a really good deal. He does the installs as well.
