newb in North Carolina
« on: February 15, 2010, 10:26:31 pm »
Hey yall. My name is Earl and I live in northeastern North Carolina. I owned a '79 Chevy 2wd shortbed in the past and now own a '90 Chevy 3+3 Silverado dually. It's good to see a site dedicated to the best looking body style Chevy pickup ever built.

Here's my rig...it's the only pic I have right now, because the weather has been so crappy. I'm adding an orange pinstripe once the weather breaks for the better.
