New to the forum
Hello everyone. In 1978, when I turned 16, my Dad gave me his '72 K5 Blazer. That was my baby until I had to sell it in 1989. I regretted it the day I sold it. I've been following this forum for a number of years but never really had a reason to activate my account. Well, on Wednesday I got a reason. My 3+ year search for my dream truck finally ended. It's a '67 SWB sitting on a '72 chassis. Front disc brakes, SM465, NP205, 4 bolt 350. I am stoked! It's scheduled to arrive on the 30th. Can't wait. I'm like a kid at Christmas. I'll probably start a thread in the Projects and Builds forum soon. Got big plans for this truck, but I'm going take my time. This proves to me that there is a God...and he likes me.
