Howdy from Aggieland
Well, I am an original bronco nut but I like the old cheby's. I am getting a '68 Chevy LWB K-10 from an Ol' Marine Corps buddy of mine. I should be getting it here in a couple of weeks. It has a 307 4speed combo. Pretty straight original truck. Needs rockers of course and a cab corner is starting to show rust. My only other chevy is the old '31 five window coupe I got after my great grandfather died. This looks like a nice place to have a sit and learn from so I guess I will stay a while if that's alright with y'all.
This is it. |

Re: Howdy from Aggieland
Well, due to some unforseen circumstances I will not be getting the chevy. I hate it but I am sure another opportunity will present itself down the road. My buddy is still selling it in middle Tennessee. Thanks for the welcome, I am buying a concilation prize 90's half ton so I will probably still hang around for the good company and info.
