Do you like chicken?
New fish here getting aggravated with my 70 C10 that should have been melted into a new Honda years ago. But I like pain. Lots of it. Why would I build a truck that has no engine, transmission, brakes, glass, or wiring harnesses? Oh yeah, pain.
I got questions. Anyone here got answers? Not into the whole "search" thing. So anyone who gets aggravated answering the same questions over and over need move along. But I don't have any simple questions either. And I like trucks. Big ones in one form or another. From my 06 Silverado, to my 90 454SS. To my 86 Chevy tow truck, to my 70 POS C10. And don't forget about "Beasty", my 99 454 3/4 ton 4x4 Suburban I tow my 30 foot toy hauler around. Yeah, I like trucks. But enough about me, how about you guys and gals? I am alone in thinking that a beat 70 shortbox deserves the death of a 70 Monte Carlo so I can creep all up in its 400 small block and TH400 trans? Did that too. Truck WILL turn the tires. Oh yeah, me. 40 year old shop owner, married to the gal of my dreams for 20 years and I believe children are evil. Just ask my 18 year old daughter that works for me. My hobbies are pretty much work, four wheelers, camping, handguns, and turtles. Turtles to the extent of 1200 exotics in the back yard. Oh, old Chevy muscle. Hanging on to a 68 SS396 Chevelle, 70 454 Chevelle, 76 El Camino SS(35k original), 78 Malibu, 81 10 second Malibu, and... a 70 SS454 Monte, and a 71 SS454 Monte too. And omewhere around this mess is a 65 442.  Be back later with some inttelgunt questions  And at 6'7" and 350 pounds, I like the Sumo guy!Andy |

Re: Do you like chicken?
I can do that.
The 86 Tow Truck with the rusty 70 piggy backing it.  The 442. Not done yet and oh boy, does that car have a story. I'll give you a hint. It involves the statement. " What the hell sre you junking it for.  The SB 4x4 Burban I got rid of due to lack of stones.  The 81 Malibu. Best time of 10.28@132. Pump gas 496 on drag radials.  Death of a Corvette  71 SS454 Monte. Best et of 12.0 @116  Mint 76 ElCaminoSS. 400 sb. 34k original.  454SS pickemup. Best et of 11.44 @ 118  My 09 ImplalaSS after my wife got into a fist fight with an Odysee. Had 3200 miles on it.  My 70 and 71 Monte SS.  Shagnasty, my 86 TType. Bolt ons got me 10.20 @ 132 on meth. Lives in Isreal now.  My " Speshul Fella, Jessie.  And for the haters, don't hate. I built every one of these cars and have been collecting for 20 years. I have a hard time letting go. That is of course you you dont have $18k in your pocket for a TType. Andy |
