New guy from Dayton, Ohio
Hi everyone, I've been lurking here for a while, but it's time to introduce myself. My name is Eric and I'm from Dayton, Ohio. I picked up a 1966 C-10 fleetside longbed this fall and I am trying to update a few things to make it my daily driver. I have been into hotrods and classics for about 20 years (I'm 36) but this is my first classic truck. I will probably have a million questions so I hope everyone will be patient. I also recently found the stovebolt site and post occasionally on chevytalk but I like the vibe here.
Here are a couple pics including my son inspecting the bed.    This was my project before the C-10. It was a 57 Chevy Handyman wagon.
