Hey guys,
I posted in the general welcome section, but figured i would post here as well. Finally pulling my 70 custom 10 outta the mothballs. My dad gave it to me when i was 17, it was originally his. I drove it all thru highschool and always planned on fixing it up, but got a little sidetracked when i went in the army. The plan was to start on it once i got back from iraq, but that didnt quite happen. Better late than never. Its a LWB, and i recently found a nice swb rolling chassis thanks to the miracle of craigslist. The first order of business will be transferring everything over to the new frame. Looking forward to getting the benefit of all the knowledge around here Mark |
