Hello from Missouri
« on: February 21, 2009, 02:38:49 pm »
Hello everyone. im from springfield, missouri. had a 78 c10 2wb lwb that i got 8 years ago when i was 16, and shortend it and made it a swb. but sold it a couple years later, and have always missed it. i finally bought another one yesterday, a 1980 swb, lowered...everythings there but its pretty rough. anyways, im going to making it into a prostreet project and thought i better become a member. my brother and i are going to rebuild the motor, then doing the chris alstons 4link with coil overs, tubbing the bed, etc...anyways, just wanted to introduce myself, now my search start for parts! i look forward to being a member to all the great information...i will try and get some pics of the project asap. - matt
