New guy from Colorado.
Hi! I'm a life-long Japanese car guy (Hondas & Subarus mostly) who recently bought a '69 C20 Fleetside w/a 396 from a neighbor. It was supposed to be the parts getter for my race car project, but it's already become a project of its own. I have fallen in love with this truck! The truck starts and runs pretty well, but needs some minor electrical and chassis repairs and maintenance...and a new bed. One of the previous owners had buggered up the wiring when adding a trailer hitch and trailer brake.
This site has already been a great help! Lots of folks w/ real experience and knowledge. I'll post some photos soon and keep y'all updated on my progress. Cameron Smith |
