Re: My 1962 C10 Build Thread "Grandpa's Truck "
Awesome Sprite, I've been itching to do one with a Honda s2000 drivetrain. Bummer on the back, I had laser spine surgery 2 years ago. Finally reached the point I couldn't work so I had to do something about it. I have to limit what I lift to about forty pounds max but I've been good since, knock on wood.
