Hello all! I have been checking this site out for a while now, seems like a great site with lots of info so I decided to join. I am in the process of building an 84 short wide and need lots of parts and info as this is my first fullsize build!

Don't know how to do that. I am old school, just got my first computer year and half ago. Son needed the computer and internet for school, wife to get on facebook. I just think this website is great because everyone here loves this era of trucks. Most of my friends have street cars, and their is nothing like a Chevy Truck of this era.

i have always loved them too, but have always built s10's I aquired this truck for free and it pretty much needed everything replaced. tore it down to bare frame and am just buying pieces as i go. I just scored a bed from texas for 450 bucks and a set of clean doors for 50. getting ready to build the frame/suspension now (as money permits that is) If you need any paint and body work I work for a body shop in Maumee!

I work in maumee at the Anderson's. My truck has original paint, red with 80,000 miles. Has a 355 built, 700 r4 with stall, and a built 8.5 ten bolt with 3.73 gears, moser axles, Eaton Posi unit. Glad to see you upgraded from the little brother truck's.
