Austin, TX newbie
Come Thanksgiving I'll have my first classic truck.... 1966 C10 Stepside. I know it has a straight 6 but I'm not yet sure which one. I'm told it's a complete rebuild with 1200 miles on it. Little to no rust and only one very small area of bondo.
I'll be driving it from Charlotte, NC to Austin, TX.... which I figure is pretty good "road test". Anyways, I just wanted to introduce myself and share my excitement.  ps. that rear bumper has GOT to go! |
