New from KS
I stumbled onto this sight while doing some research about purchasing a 67-72 chevy pickup. A month later and I am still reading and absorbing the incredible amount of knowledge that is available on this site. I have actually decided to go a little bit different direction and get a 69-72 blazer so now the search is on.
A little about me, currently living in Kansas. I am a pilot in the Army currently stationed at Fort Riley. I was bit by the Chevy bug a long time ago when my father bought a 70 cheyenne. Now I am in a position to pick up one of my own. I look forward contributing where possible and learning as much as I can while enjoying these great trucks! |

Re: New from KS
Welcome from Western Kentucky. I was stationed at Fort Riley in 1965 and we were shipped out to VietNam in June of '65. Big Red One, 18th Infintry. Spent most of our time on search and destory missions. Lost a few good friends there. Again, welcome.
