Newbie from NC
« on: March 25, 2015, 11:59:34 am »
Hello all, ive always had mustangs or some other kind of old hot rod. So i decided to switch it up a bit and buy my first truck and my first 4x4 vehicle. Its a 1976 Trailering Special. Original 400ci was taken out and replaced with a 350. Runs a little rough..but runs. Ol'girl needs some work. Ive already ordered fenders and doors. Needs floor pans and some bed work. But she runs pretty well.look forward to using this forum and hopefully meeting some local people

Lets see some photos. Is it early enough in 76 that it doesn't need emissions?

I tried to post up some pics but says the file is too large. Im not computer savy enough to know how to resize the pics. its the truck in my avatar. No emission here. dont even need to get it inspected in NC if the vehicle is over 35years old. Huge plus to having old cars

agreed i get collectors plates on my 73 and that makes me exempt and its really nice, it also makes it so you can do cutouts and such.
