New from TX
Hi everyone, im 25 yo from south texas with his first older chevy. I call her "Evilyn" she is an 82 chevy c10 with a 305 true dual exhaust long bed full size. I got her from my dad for 500 bucks, he had been driving it since early 90's replaced 2 enigines while he had it and works great. I have paint, and engine work planned for it really soon planning to do the work myself as much as i can to learn hands on, so please be patient with me and if i ask a question i wouldnt mind an answer or suggestions you might have. I have been a member of CTW for a while now and got reffered her by a posting. Well hope to hear from you soon.

Quote:
These are very similar or are them: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ameri...QQcmdZViewItem It kinda looks like the holes in mine are a little larger. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/186-A...QQcmdZViewItem Those are also very similar I'm wondering if those aren't the rim I have. Good luck in your search The previous owner I don't think posts here (I got the truck from Ebay). And welcome to the forums! |
