Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy

Man I like your truck. The silver looks great and so does that LS. I am originally from Conway, AR, but I am in the Army and live in Fayetteville, NC. I have a 62 that I drove in high school that I a building with a 5.3 and mild drop. I am dreading paint. I hate painting.
