New Guy from MA
« on: October 07, 2010, 10:03:45 pm »
Well as it says in the title I'm a new guy here. Just got back into the Chevy game with a 1975 c10 short bed. It's a standard car with a 3 speed auto on the floor. The truck started life as a 250 straight 6, but now has a '88 GMC 2500 Sierra 350 n it carb'd with a Rochester Quadrajet. The previous owner has lowered it considerably and flip the rear axle. Kinda need a kidney belt to drive for long periods of time. I've been visiting this site for about 2 weeks now, soaking up all the info here and finally decided it was time to join. Hope fully I can help out on the forums any way possible.

Welcome from Mass.
What town are you from?.
I have a shop in Halifax.
I'm down there nights and weekends playing with my trucks if you are near by.

Thank you everyone! fitz unfortunately I'm more closer to RI, I live in Attleboro so it'd be a little bit of a hike. But I'd love to come down one night to check out your trucks!
