Hello from England
« on: April 14, 2015, 04:54:32 am »
Hello! I'm Oliver, from the South coast of England.

I've had my '79 K10 since last June. Only just signed up now...
I'm also on chevyk5blazer.com with the same username, as I used to have a K5.

When I bought the truck last year I made a point of just enjoying it for the summer, but now I'm in the process of doing it up. So I'll be pestering you with a lot of questions, hopefully not all of them typical noob queries that'll have you pointing me to the search function.

As I bought it last year. A few changes made since then, I'll start a build thread

Thanks for the welcomes- yes it does turn heads, and it's also very easy to find in a car park! Will have to get some pics of it next to some "regular" (for here) traffic

We were in England and Wales in 2004 and it was easy to spot the rare American car

Huge vehicle compared to the native cars
Plus your petrol is what, £1.5 per litre ?
