New guy... old trucks
Hey... Been checking out this site for ahile now, I finally broke down and signed up
 . It looks like a great hang out. I have 2 trucks, one workhorse '68 C10 350 4-bolt transplant with 4 on the floor(she dont look like much, but what a runner!). I also have a '71 C20 fully loaded with a 350/TH350 just got her a couple of months ago (she is more of a looker, since I haven't been able to tweek her so much yet. Lookin foreward to chat with ya. See pics... what do ya think?

Re: New guy... old trucks
  From cold southern Michigan, Most guys say they finished their trucks because of this board. I think I would have mine finished if it wasn't for this board. LOL

Re: New guy... old trucks
Yeah the '71 is sweet, she needs just a couple of goodies. She is a great daily driver (I just need to try to get my wife out of it once in a while).

Re: New guy... old trucks
Hey 68step, I try to tell her to play nice, but she insists on driving the one with the frills and leaving me to the rock crusher, I think I still make out OK, ol' yeller kicks butt(mechanically), just no PS or PB for the wife to enjoy.
Thanks for the kudos on the picture thing, it took me a while to figure out how to make them small enough to fit the board. Oh well baby steps huh?

Good plan JC, we got the '05 sub, but it is more like a limo than a wheeler.
