Hi everybody. My name is Eric. And I live in Coeur d'Alene Idaho. I have 2 square bodies. The first is a 1979 K10 Scottsdale LWB that my daughter named King Neptune. The second is a 1974 GMC Jimmy. The Jimmy has a spun rod or crank bearing. Don't know. Haven't cracked it open yet. The one will be my first build project since the K10 is pretty solid. No rust other than surface rust on the rear bumper. But the Jimmy on the other hand needs a new crank as I stated above. And it also has a few rust spots that need taken care of. As well as some updating. I've worked on these old rigs before. And have a fairly good general knowledge of things. But this will be a big project for me. I've never done anything this extensive. So, I'll be asking a lot of questions on this site I'm sure.
