Re: help me out, looking for feature posts for main page.

I think everyone on here has read it already, but this is my story of buying my first C10 in California, driving it back to Houston, and later trailering it up to Canada where I live now.

I like that idea. My truck was 100% done by me, with information I received from this forum. Also bought and used a few parts from forum members and LOTS of parts from forum sponsors (and other dealers)

Lol, he's about a mile and a half from you right now. A beat up box was on my front porch this afternoon and guess who was inside.

Re: help me out, looking for feature posts for main page.

Keep the ideas coming.

Thank you for the input so far. I will be using them as we go.

I know the thread looks all jacked up now, but I merged the comments with the subject posts, so that I can keep them together for adding to the main page.


Jesse link me your build thread or such, or I will post it titled 'bringer of the rain'
