I'm back! New truck!

After a 3.5 year hiatus, I have returned to the fold! Those of you not around back then, I used to drive a 1980 C10 stepside, and I had a 1984 GMC parts truck, too. After selling both of those and paying off my car, I jumped on this gem.

1981 C10 Chevy, 350 V8, Auto, Power brakes/steering, power windows (which I may do away with). Sliding rear glass, headers, side exhaust (which is entirely too loud lol)... Some rust issues with the doors but the rockers look solid and the cab floor felt good. Has some rust, but not as bad as Ol Red was. The exhaust is too loud for my liking, may look in to some quiet mufflers. Also, it has drop spindles in the front and leafs taken out the back. The guy said he'll swap me the stock spindles for the drop ones, cause I wanna put the truck back to stock height.

This is just gonna be the weekend warrior for hauling bikes and other manly tasks that my Honda isn't up to doing. Well, on to the pics.

















And for old times sake, here's what my red truck looked like.
