Hello
« on: March 24, 2008, 03:34:59 pm »
New guy here,not new to forrums on general but new to this one.I have a 73 k10 and a 76 c35.I own a bunch of fords to.
 I'm beginning a rebuild of my 73.its been sitting for about 10 years after i sold the motor.It currently sits on a 2"suspension lift and a 3" body >:(,thats going away.and 4 flat 33"s.
 The body cancer is awful but Ive seen worse,ill be needing new fenders,doors and plenty of patch panels.
 I'm going to get the off road design 3" suspension kit and stick with 33"s,every thing else is still up in the air.

I don't know if body cancer is contagious but it probably caught it from the Fords.

Jeeps are cool, just a pain to work on, AMC or Chrysler.

Skinned knuckles and eating rust are the best therapy there is ;D

Welcome aboard!   I won't give you any greif over the ford. I round track race a ranger body 4 banger truck on Sat. nights at Shadybowl Speedway in Degraf Oh.

I'm a chevy lover all the way but the engine we modify and run is the 2300 pinto motor its on an S-10 front clip and tube chassis with a 5 Star aftermarket racing body.
UH-OH  I'M GONNA NEED A BIGGER BANDAID!!!!!
