Another new guy here

[Bjones]

i joined back in september, but have just been reading previous threads to figure stuff out. Now its time for me to stop being troll and introduce myself.

I just bought my first gm. I has a 99 f150 that i sold for the down payment on our house, then i bought a 01 f150, which i sold to get the wife her new Dodge. After all that, I told her the next vehicle i buy is mine forever. SO i bought something old enough that it cant be traded in for a new car. (hehe)

I found this puppy on craigslist. A guys told me that he restored it back in 98, drove it 2002, then parked it in a barn until Sept 2011, when i bought it for 2800. May over overpaid, but didn't care. here is what i know of it so far"

1971 GMC c25, 305 4bl, th350, 4.11 gears, dual straight pipes with headers and no freakin radio so when i drive it down the highway at 65 (3300 rpm) it freakin annoying.

But anyway, my name is brian, i am electrician by trade and figured if i can rebuild an electric motor how hard can rebuilding one of these be. I'm about to find out cause it starts in April as soon as it warms a little.
