Hi from Canada

Hi everyone! I have been lurking on here for awhile trying to absorb a bunch of the information while looking for a truck and was pretty happy when the registration was opened again. I picked up a 70 C10 a couple of weeks ago.

Drove it home about 15 miles after it sat for 3 years so I was pretty happy with that. 292 4spd in ok condition. Bed is pretty rusty and whoever did the rockers and cab corners didn't do great work. I just picked up a bunch of patch panels for it and will be looking for some 15x8 rallys.

1st rule is it needs to be drivable every summer so a piece at a time but eventually converted to shortbox, lowered with decent brakes and a 6L/4L80E with a variant of the sloppy don't BS me turbo setup running on Holley Terminator.

Maybe I'll start a build thread to hold myself accountable to someone other than myself

Re: Hi from Canada

We always stayed at the Hilltop Inn. Back then it was the Podallin Inn.
And a beer and burger at the Barley Station.
Once again, Welcome!

Re: Hi from Canada

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone! I started a build thread so you can follow my slow and amateurish progress
