New from Catawba, NC
« on: October 07, 2015, 07:20:42 pm »
Hello everyone. As being new to this site, I will give you a bit of background on myself.

I spent 3 years in the US Navy between 1974-77 on the USS Narwhal SSN-671 nuclear submarine, got married in 78 after I left the service. Spent the first part of my career in upholstering furniture and then made a switch to law enforcement. I have since retired from law enforcement and now employed as a custodian for my local school system.

I am a through and through Chevrolet man. I have owned any Chevy's over my lifetime. I currently own a 2002 Chevrolet 2500HD 4X4 extended cab shortbed. I just recently purchased a 1973 Chevy C10 shortbed pickup with a 250 6 cylinder with a manual trans, manual steering, and heat.

I plan on switching the motor with a 355/400hp that I have built with an 350 turbo trans. After I get better acquainted with how this site works, I'll post some pics of my 73.
