Hi from central NM!
« on: March 12, 2014, 07:11:28 am »
Hi there everyone. I'm new to this site, but have been in and out of offroading since I was in high school. I've got an 84 K10 w/ a 454 in it. My goal is to make it an expedition type vehicle and something to play with on the trails all over the southwest.

Gonna be a slow build, including fixing some factory stuff (like light switches, probably starter, heavy duty alternator, etc) but I have a long list ahead of me.

Thanks everyone! I do tend to like the SW for the terrain and weather, but I can't wait to move to another state in this area :p
