First "official" post!  Have been lurking and checking things out.

Have a couple trucks.  1977 K-10 Silverado and a 1983 K-10 Silverado.  Bought the 83 first with plans to restore then ran into the 77 and had to have it!  I like the old round headlight trucks.

77 has had a couple loving owners before me.  Older restoration that needs a few spots fixed and paint.  The guy I got it from has done all the mechanical and started on the sheet metal. Did the floors and has the rockers and corners but not installed. Has a pair of new SortaFit paper thin fenders that will get replaced soon. Due to the crappy economy and not working since Dec he had to sell.

83 is a wood hauling down on the farm beater that's in decent shape. Has a 355 built for low end torque and a fresh TH350.  Typical rust in cab and bed but frame looks good. Came with a set of 33x12.5x15 Cooper Discoverer SST that are brand new. Bought for $800 with a lower end knock.  Looking for a 40's to late 50's cab and bed to put on this frame. Should be fun!






Anyway, glad to be here. From the posts i have read so far there are many knowledgeable folks here.
