New from Texas.
« on: June 21, 2010, 06:37:33 pm »
Hello everyone,

I've been searching for some good classic truck forums lately so I can find some information on my truck. I recently acquired a 1981 Chevy C10 LWB. Basically picked it up for a work truck but I think eventually I'll want to put a good amount of work into it.

A little about myself, I'm 25, born and raised in Texas, Marine veteran and now I'm a fire fighter. Still learning a lot about mechanics and automotive as I go along here trying DIY's etc. My daily driver is a 2008 Honda Accord EX-L v6 Coupe which I love. But I've always loved these old body Chevy trucks and hopefully I can get my running good soon.

Looking forward to doing some research around here and maybe get a little help here and there, thanks.  ;D

This is just a snap shot of it, it's not the prettiest one alive, but it's got potential.
