New Dude in San Diego

[Dirty_Thirty]

Hi all,

Ive been lurking around the forum for months now and finally got around to signing up.

Im new to the classic car scene. I recently acquired a 1966 c20 long bed and Im absolutely Loving It!!! Before this I was really into imports and got heavy into Drifting, but my budget is more comfortable with the low and slow scene now.

I look forward to learning from all of you veterans out there and hope to get my truck on your guys level some day.

How it sits today: Ive got a long way to go! Haha!

Chevy runs in the family!!! My brother's '57 sedan that he restored with my Dad before he passed.





And this is the wife and I taking her grandfather's '56 Belair out for a spin. He bought this thing new off the lot and still has it!!!
