new old guy from Canada
« on: February 02, 2010, 08:04:16 am »
Hi.
Just joined up to this great forum. It is a wealth of good info. I am a 58 yr old male from Ottawa Canada and I am building a 1980 Chevy short box fleetside. So far it is lowered 3 & 5. Has a old 350 with a mild build, a 4 speed ( maybe switching to a 700R4), I bought new bed sides and one new fender. I will be smoothing the body a tad. Glad to be here and hope to learn a lot from you guys.
