Hello to all, a new guy checking in...

Hello everyone, I have been lurking for a while but I figured I would make myself known. I got my truck in a package deal with a 68 londbed (I don't have any pics of it) that ran and was in fair shape... both for $700 bucks. I drove the longbed off and on for a year or so and then decided to sell it. I got $500 bucks for it so that made my shortbed only $200 dollars! The shortbed had a 327/TH350 in it before I bought it, but the guy I bought the trucks from pulled that out as part of the deal. I will have to check the frame on a rack to make sure it is not bent beyond repair before I start on it. The back of the cab is pushed in a bit so I picked up a cab locally for an extra $100 bucks. I have an LT1/4L60 from a 97 Z28 for it when the time comes. So I know how you guys are about pics so...


















Let me know what you guys think.
