I thought i would introduce myself....

Hello all! I have been lurking around this forum for a couple weeks and finally decided to join. This is a great forum and everyone seems to have great information. Well some info about me. I am 25 and have a big passion about classic cars and truck. I currently own a 1970 c10, 1965 Chevelle ss, 1965 Chevelle ss conv. I am getting ready to restore/customize my 70 c10 truck. I recently bought a new boat and wanted to restore my truck to tow the boat rather than buying a new truck. So i am sure i will be asking alot of questions related to towing, airbagging, engine related and much more. I have decided to sell my 65 chevelle ss hardtop to pay for the complete resto on my truck. So as soon as it sells i start a fun and exciting project. I will add a few pics of what i want my truck to look like. Anyway just wanted to say hi!!

Josh

Re: I thought i would introduce myself....

I wish the truck was mine! I saw it at a car show that i went to. I fell in love right away. It looks so much nicer in person. I took the pics so i can get my c10 to look something similiar. My c10 needs an overhaul for sure.

72Levi i wish my conv. was in good condition but it needs some love. I bought it when i was 18 and haven't fixed it up yet. I guess i am just waiting for a min of 35k to drop into my lap so i can fix it up. It is my dream car and i want to do a complete frame off with nothing held back. I did find a sweet pic of a conv. that looks amazing. I will post a pic for you. Thanks for the welcomes!!!!

The yellow convertible belongs to Charles Lumpkin of C&S classic cars here in my home town of Springdale, Arkansas. It was a custom one off promo car for a major corporation. That photo was taken in his shop I believe. Dean

Re: I thought i would introduce myself....

The red chevelle is mine. I also have a conv. that when i get enough money to do it correct i will start it. Right now it needs alot of love. I found that pic of the yellow one and thought it looks so beautiful and since 72Levi wanted to see pics of a conv i thought i would post a pic for him. Hey rsrxion do you know where they got the upholstery done on that yellow conv.? It is so awesome. Anywyays thanks everyone for the kind welcome!
