Hi My name is Gerardo I'm 40 father of 5 and grandfather of 2 so far. Yes grandfather i live in Dayton NV about 30 miles south of Reno NV. I have a 79 Chevy K 5 blazer that i got for a steal.  Runs great, a little rusty.  Spent it's life in the Sierra for many winters.  Already installed a 700r4 from a 86.   I'll post some pics later of that project.  I also just picked up a 79 GMC shortbed stepside less motor.  My plan is to get rid of the stepside and replaced it with a fleetside.  I'll post some of that project soon also.  And if 2 projects weren't 1 too many, i also have a 64 GMC truck shortbed that I'm also working on.  Well that's all for now looking forward to chat with or exchange ideas with you all thanks.  Gerardo

Some people are like Slinkies. Not really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs

Welcome gerardo from Dayton OHIO!

Wow,,, a grandpa twice at 40, congratulations. I have a 19 year old son trying to make me one too. I keep tellin him to wrap it up!!!!!  Maybe he'll wait till I'm 40?

If by chance your coming this way I'd take that step side bed off your hands, I need to get the hillbilly wooden bed off my 78 shorty and want a stepside for it.

Talk to you later. Matt

Welcome from Maryland

Personally, I would keep the step side - I like stepsides over fleets.  I was looking to convert mine over but couldn't find a decent step side.

By all means post pics ;D
