Hi From Portland
Hi Everyone,
I just joined from Portland, Oregon. I have a 72 Suburban C10 usual 350/350 combo. Being in the great northwest I get to watch the road fly by, through the holes in the floor.  I bought this suburban for $700.00, all I've done is reconnect the driveshaft, put a new aircleaner, and give it a good cleaning and she runs like a champ. Ok, not a champ, but as good as I can expect for a 35 year old truck with no power steering, brakes, or anything. She starts and stops like she is supposed to, so thats what matters. I'll be needing some info on it as I'm new to this area. (My other car is a Mustang Cobra, I know, a Ford, forgive me) Thanks in advance to everyone that is able to help me, and I'm looking forward to sharing pics and info with everyone.

Re: Hi From Portland
Welcome from blazing New Mexico. Your truck is in better shape than both of mine combined. So you have a pretty good start.
