New guy on the block
Hi Folks!
It,s been a long exhausting search trying to find a message board worth my time in reading but it looks like this is the place! Just a couple of quick things you probably would like to know about me. I own several trucks. The one I just finished (If there ever finished) is a 67 small window stepside. It's 67 camaro blue with high back 94 seats and stainless dash ( I could fill a book on ow its equiped). I took a different direction when it came to the powertrain by installing a 5.7L fuel injected, 4L60 trans and a 3.73 posi. Needless to say, its a monster. I am looking for folks that have done or need help with this kind of conversion. It is very expensive to go this direction but the pay off in over all driveability can not be matched. I think I could save them some time and money. I also own a 81 GMC stepside with a wood bed. This baby is in original condition and I will probably just update it to throttle body. I havent decided yet. Last but not least a 32 chevy, but this baby needs alot of work and right now I m too exhausted from the 67 to fool with it. That dosent mean its for sale so dont ask....sorry. I am a resedent of Louisiana and looking for a truck club to join. I am also a G.M. World Class Techician and an Operations Director / Service Manager for te largest Chevy dealer group in Louisiana. Anyway, glad to be here Last edited by Misstur_big; 11-22-2006 at 08:01 AM. Reason: spelling |
