Hello from East Tennessee
« on: May 22, 2013, 07:35:03 am »
Hello all,
Just bought a 1985 K10 Silverado 4WD 5.0L 4-speed. 98K original miles, pretty much stock everything. Course I have a list of things to restore, but first I am mainly trying to make her safer to drive. This is my first project type truck, and with that I will probably have a bunch of stupid questions to ask.

A little about myself, I work for TVA, married with 4 kids. 30 years old and I am also in the National Guard.

Nice to meet y'all,
Dave
