Hey guys,

I did the introductory post in the welcome are but wanted to share my new toy with y'all. I picked up my truck yesterday. Has been a Georgia truck it's whole life. The main points are recent repaint, all rust removed, ZZ4 engine, TH400 with reverse manual valve body. The prior owner was sorry to see it go since it originally belonged to his dad who has since passed.

Interior is a little rough and I'll be working on that asap. Also have a 4/6 drop planned and adding an overdrive. Right now just plan on driving the snot out of it and have fun before I start tearing it down for upgrades.

Pics show a dirty truck since I picked it up in the rain and have been driving it all day. Feeling like a 43 year old kid.
