Hi my names Bob, I'm from the the Antelope Valley So. Cal.I'm working on a 70 c-20 that will be used to tow my travel trailer.I got the truck back in the early 90's in exchange for building a cabinet for a guy at work.Started a full frame off and got as far as the rolling chassis powdercoated and the got sidelined for a long time.Started up again in 08 and working on it on the weekends the progress is slow.My first love was my 72 bb c-20 I had from 74-78 and allways wanted another. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/a...1&d=1264045169

G'day and welcome from Downunder

Nice pic - I have a canopy on my work ute and they are so handy. I used to be a snob about them.

Make yourself at home.

Welcome from Western Kentucky. I think just about everone on here at one time or another wishes he or she never sold a car or truck that they once owned. I know I have. I wish I did not sell my 1957 Chevy NoMad back in 85 and for only $2,400.00. But I really needed the money at the time.

Bob- The easiest way I found to resize the pics is to put them in 'Paint' on your computer and edit the image by the "resize/skew" function. Thats how I sized mine down, it works.
