Nooblet from MN!
« on: December 27, 2011, 09:56:39 am »
Hey everyone,

My name is Aaron and I joined the site in hopes of helping my friend to restore/modify his '75 C10.
I drive a '91 eagle talon, but my focus here will be the truck especially since I do not have full time employment in my field yet.

Goal is to make a superb handling truck, powered by a 5.3 against a 4L80E and perhaps boost after the first year or 2 of running.

The truck is currently stripped down to just the box, cab, and rolling chassis, my friend decided to remove everything else for some reason.

Any and all help is appreciated.
