New guys from South Central PA
« on: July 22, 2009, 12:44:42 pm »
My son just bought a '78 Chevy K10.
It's going to need a fair amount of work, but it will be a fun project for us.
I've got lots of research to do, just to figure out what he has.
A lot of the undercarriage has been swapped out, from original.
Seems to have a pretty healthy 350 in it, though.
It has a 4 speed manual in it, although the column suggests it had an automatic, originally.

Look forward to lots of questions being answered, as we tackle this beast.

As soon as I figure out how to attach a picture, I'll put one up.
