Newbie Intro - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Orange52 · 09-22-2005, 10:22 AM

I've been lurking for a while and thought I should post an intro.

I have a '52 Chevy Pickup that I'm working on, it's been in the family since new.
Once complete it will run a Mustang II ifs (almost done), a 235 with split exhaust, saginaw 4 speed, and firebird rear end.
It won't have a lot of modifications, I just want a clean driver.

I recently moved to the Des Moines, IA area from Eastern Iowa so I'm still coming up to speed on the local car scene.

My '52 is nothing to look at right now. It's basically in pieces, once I get the engine/trans in and the front sheet metal on I'll take some pictures.
