Newbie from Pa.
Hi there, I'm a newbie here......well, sorta. Been lurkin' around on and off for about a year.I figured it's about time I registered, and with the goal of one day becoming a supporter. I've owned plenty of Chevys through the years....mostly Chevelles and Novas. My dad bought a 71 Blazer brand new when I was a teen. I always liked that body style, so when it came time to buy a Chevy truck (my first truck was a Ford) I was leaning toward the 67-72 models. Presently own a 69 LWB which was my daily driver.Took it off the road because it needed repairs I couldn't afford.It sat out in the yard for 5 yrs til I finally got the ambition to do some work on it. That was in 2005. I'm now ready to put her back on the road as my daily driver. I'm not a mechanic by trade so I'll have lots of questions.
