1973 Cheyenne C30
« on: September 17, 2010, 05:55:22 PM »
Hello everyone from TX

I just got this truck and I want her to look a lot better than what she looks like right now...
She has a 454 4 BBL engine with a 400 3spd tranny... she runs really good and straight...

When I went to test drive it... my 7th yr old daugther was with me and she told me... I think this one is going to work... so I got it.

I want to fix her up and give her a good paint job, maybe replace the hood and passenger door... I have not lift that plastic bed liner yet... but I hope everything underneath is in good condition...

I'm open to all sugestions so hit me up...

Thank you
Francisco

Welcome. What color are you going to paint it?
