Title: Hello
Post by: Strange81Z on January 22, 2009, 09:31:32 pm: Hey guys, just wanted to say Hi. I'm new here. I don't own a truck yet but I'll be in the market for one soon if/when I sell my 81 Z28.

I had an 83 back in the day and I want to build another Short Box. I look forward to getting to know everyone here..

Post by: Strange81Z on January 22, 2009, 09:44:15 pm: Well, hopefully it won't be too long before I have one, but the way the economy is looking I might have a hard time selling my Camaro. :-[ However, I can research so I can plan my build right. ;D

Post by: Hook on January 23, 2009, 12:51:57 am: Welcome..I'm also truckless at the moment. I regret selling my 78 Burb when I moved to Vegas. Nice 2nd gen (Nastyz28?). I have a 70 I'm working on too. No plans to get rid of it though. I hope to find a 4x4 P/U stepside sometime in the future.
My Burb-SOLD :(

Post by: oldyeller on January 23, 2009, 08:54:21 am: Welcome to the site. Your car is sweet. Why do you want to sell it, other than to by a truck? If it was mine, I would find a way around selling it. I know the economy is not doing that good right now, but you can find a fixer-upper for pretty cheap.

Oh yea, I built my car from the knowledge I gained from Nastyz28! Those guys are awesome and very willing to help others out. That best site from 2nd Gen on the WEB IMHO.

Good luck with your build!

I have limited space for toys, plus I want to have some cash to move quickly on my build.

Post by: oldyeller on January 23, 2009, 09:05:35 am: I can understand that. We have 4 acres, so space is not an issue with us. Money on the other hand, it's always nice to have some to work on projects with.

I'd like to, but I have no room for two toys. Besides selling the Z will give me cash in hand for this project...
