new from el paso tx
« on: December 06, 2010, 09:07:29 pm »
hello everyone, name is Andrew. stationed at ft bliss texas. just recently purchased a 1982 chevy k10 sitting on top of a 1976 frame and drivetrain. truck has a 350 with a 4 speed. 4 wheel drive and no rust. got it for 500 bucks. so far ive installed a new throwout bearing, wheel bearings and cut the dual mufflers off so it sounds like an actual truck. it has a 6 inch suspension life and a 2 inch body lift sitting on 35 inch mud tires.
