New from Northern California
« on: February 08, 2010, 10:53:21 pm »
Hello there from beautiful nor cal wine country..    My family, (dad and brothers)  mainly my twin and I are pretty much obsessed with 73-87 gm trucks..  so glad we found this site.. this community.. looking foward to sharing.  i've been through plenty, but i own now (and this time forever) a 1979 Cheyenne K30 6 in lift, 400/th400, on 36in swampers..   its really clean. I love it.. I feel like i went through all the other ones to get to this one!!
