1973 C20 in Vancouver, Washington

Hello everyone, name is Steve, I'm 18. I've known about this site for a while, but I finally bought a Chevy so I made an account. A good friend of mine is on here under 1971C20 although he now has a 1976 C10.

Bought my truck less than 2 weeks ago with a very sound, rebuilt 350 with an RV cam, Weiand manifold, edelbrock carb, headers, TH400 trans, etc. As of today, it is gray primered with black wheels. It's a blast to drive. I had a 1972 Ford F100 that was a heap of junk, and I still have a nice little 4WD Bronco II that I love and use to zoom around town in and get muddy once in a while.

I may get verbally abused for it, but I'm all for Fords and Chevys. I also enjoy 4WDs and 2WDs. I guess I like to have the best of both worlds.

These are my plans for the truck:

-burnt orange paint with flat finish
-black leather interior (metal is already orange)
-lowered 4 or 5 inches in the rear, 2-3 front
-Black 17, 18 or 19 inch rims
-no trim, clean look (might shave handles down the road)
-built motor
-bedliner
-keep forever and daily drive it

This is what it looked like before I primered it and painted the rusty wheels black
