My first build - '79 C20 454

[CJ_Chevy]

This is my first post and wanted to introduce myself on to the board. Ive used this site a ton while i have been doing a frame off resto on my 79 c20 bbc. Thanks to all of you guys for the info and the help.

Now about the truck. I bought it as my winter runner (so i didnt have to drive my firebird in the winter) in spring of 2008 while I was at carlisle just before i graduated high school. Drove it and worked it until the winter when i decided i wanted to tear it down and rebuild it. Numbers matching all original truck, pretty clean. The engine was redone before i bought it and it was punched .030. Ive done all of the work over the past few years in between work and college, except i had my local engine shop rebuild the engine with all new internals and a tranny shop rebuilt the th400 with a bit of a shift kit. its finally coming together and i finally got around to becoming a member on the forum so i figured i would throw this thread up.

heres some pics of whats happened.
