New guy from Kansas
Just heard about this board a week or two ago. Checked it out and decided that it looked like the place to be if you got a Chevy PU. I been a mechanic for a little over 30 years and am currently working for a Mercedes shop [ Go figure? ] I`ve got several truck projects going on presently, and I`m in progress of working on a 71 4x4 shortbed stepside that I am lifting with a 8'' Superride kit and have new 39x18'' Mickeys that I hope to have done in the next week or two! I also have a 72 Longhorn, a 87 Silverado that I`m baggin, and a host of others that I dont know if they will ever get done { Too many irons in the fire! } Anyway, I have had many a truck and some mechanical & engineering experiance that might be of some help to you all if needed. I`ll try and post some pics soon of my projects! Keep on Truckin!
