New kid on the block saying what up!!

Finally joined the forum but I have been leeching for the past 4 months checking out everyone's rides and projects. There is so much good info and people on here so i can't wait to share my projects and get feedback and ideas from the board!

Anyway, a little about me. I'm a mechanical engineering student currently and have always loved cars. I have mostly been into the import scene building turbo awd cars but its time to start the long term project.

The C-10 obsession started when I was young and got rides from my grandpa and uncles in the family farm trucks. After my grandfather passed he gave the trucks to some of my uncles and now they have been given down to me. They have been beat up and abused on the farm but I feel its time to bring back those childhood memories and wrench some new life into em!

I was given 2 trucks and a spare cab from my uncles and just recently purchased another 64 to start the build off with some straight panels. I plan on building it up with a gen III LS motor, 4l60e or 4l80e trans with either a ford 9 in the rear or possibly building the 12 bolt to keep it all bowtie. Once I get it together I'll eventually turbo charge it just because I am addicted to the pull of forced induction. I still don't know how much I want to drop it or rims... and still debating if I'll toss some thick rubber in the back and tub it slightly... I'll just have to see where it all takes me. But for now this is my starting point and can't wait to modify em!

Enjoy the pics... I'll put more up later.
