Hello All....From Australia
Hows everyone going?
Long time Pontiac and Chevy fan here. I live in Sydney, Australia. I've visited the US quite a few times. Next trip in 2008 I hope to bring home a GMC or Chevy truck....a 1500 or C10 would be nice. I'd like to hang around here and learn some about them.....I've never owned a US built pickup truck. Currently have a garage full of Firebirds...a couple of 67 Firebird 400 cars that are "for sale" projects (funding my truck purchase) and my toy...a 77 Trans Am. |
