New Guy from KCMO
Hey Everybody,
Just a quick hello and thanks for having me. I'm new to the site, and totally stoked to join! I have a 68 SWB that is a work in progress. I bought it when I was 13, washed dishes to pay for it , then sold it when I was 18 to my Dad. I bought it back from him earlier this year, 10 years later, and decided to fix it up. My Dad and I are working on it together and are always coming up with questions, I can't wait to tap into the knowledge of all of the other truck lovers on this site. We are getting ready to put the 496/TH400 in the truck as soon as I get them from the engine builder and trans guy, put the 3.5/5 drop on last weekend and have lots of plans for the rest of the truck. Thanks again for having me!
