My new baby

While after I sold my first truck. I have been looking for another one every since. .. Not as clean as the lasted one, be is a good foundation. 1985 Silverado SWB..What told its a 305 crate motor.. headers... filed out. .. new rallys...I don't know what rear end it has in it but it is geared low. ... no need for brakes on highway. .. it get about 10 mpg so I'll have to fix that rear end. ... May put a tbi on it....

Re: My new baby

Very nice. There's one like that in my town with wide white walls on it. I personally like white letters better, but its nice. If I can catch him out in it, I'll get a pic. It has been restored.

Re: My new baby

Funny how you mention a "fix" for the rear end. In my eyes, yours is fixed! Hahahaha! Good luck with it.
