new here,from kelowna bc

hi everybody!!

so im new here and from kelowna bc, i got a 1976 chevy scottsdale given to me about 3 just about 4 years ago, it was already done up when i got it.The guy who gave it to me got it from his brother who passed away from cancer and had no room for it and gave it to me if i promised to keep it nice and after a few thank yous and hand shakes i got a list of things done to the truck,the tent to protect it from weather and i was on my way sideways threw every green light, it has a 350 rebuilt with edlebrok carb and header*i belive thats its name* with a 700r tranny,straight pipe exhaust with cherry bombs half way down and she never seen snow,the paint-power-sound and feeling of this truck made me a hardcore chevy lover.now recently i just got the tranny rebuilt and now has a new manual fuel pump and electric,fuel lines around the motor and little things such as l.e.d's and what not, but now i gotta redo my e-brake cable,rad and want to go to posi in the rear end *guess the last guy didnt get to finishing that part of the truck* but hopefully this site will help me, if theres anyone from kelowna message me,always good to have gear head friends
