HI from Sac, CA
Hey there, great site and it seems like a great community that likes to help each other. I am a proud owner of a 74 chevy super custom deluxe c20 that I bought from my grandfather when I was 20, he was only person to have owned before me so its more sentimental then value but value is in the eye of the beholder. It seems like yesterday even thou it was 15 yrs ago,I worked for LO JACK up until me and the wife were blessed with twins after the doctors told us we werent able to have kids lucky to us that she got pregnant a month before we were going to give 15k to adopt. Kids are 3 now and I'm a stay at home dad since the wife made more money, so until they start school daddy is in charge at home.....uh oh j/k they are a blessing boy and girl that keep each other busy. The truck came with a 454 that I took out in 2001 due to bad main bearings so its been disassembled and gets worked on when I have free time. Well I will start a thread describing the life of the truck and its restoration and engine built for it. So hi all...
Vinny

Re: HI from Sac, CA
Thank you all for the welcome.It seems that just when I think I have time for the truck or to get on the site the wife always has a project for me. Am in the middle of putting wood flooring down and I have it half done and boy do my legs hurt from it. Well will have time on monday so maybe will get the tread on the 74 started. Thanks again for the welcome.
