New guy from Illinois
Hello everyone, I have been lurking on the site for a while and finally decided to join. My name is Francisco but everyone calls me Frankie. I bought a 72 short stepside with a 67-68 front clip about 6 months ago from Texas. My wife and I went down there to visit some relatives so i took advantage of the situation to get a solid southern truck, plus I've always wanted one. Here are some pics let me know what you guys think. the last pic I got from the PO.
