New from Colorado
Hey everyone. I finally got my '71 Shorty!

This is my first project and I know nothing about fixing or working on trucks but I dove in as soon I got it. I did little stuff like replace the door handles, outside mirrors, door locks, rewired and replaced the side/tail lights and replaced the spark plugs and wires. It felt really good when I was done.

Im gonna try to lower it next and replace the front grill and both bumbers.

Anyway, this site is amazing and Im happy to be part of it.

Re: New from Colorado
Hey Cochino12. (cool name dude)
