Re: Just bought my first C10!

Thanks guys! It's a 1970 SWB with a 355/TH350, mild cam. I'd like to put some headers and Spintech mufflers on soon and fix some of the minor issues it has. It's my daily driver and I love the thumbs ups and smiles it gets!

Re: Just bought my first C10!

You'll love the spintech's I just sold my flows and wedged mine in to see what they sounded like. Even not quite sealed up they sound fantastic. Far better than anything else I have heard, IMO.

Welcome, there is a wealth of knowledge here. I keep learning and my build costs keep rising!

Welcome.
Love the truck and the stance.
Noticed you got Ohio historical plates on it. You buy it in Ohio or live in Ohio?
