Hello From An Iowa Farmer
i have a 1996 k1500 longbox extended with a 5.7, a 1992 k1500 extended shortbox 350, and a 1949 3100 5 window.
i am always looking for new ideas to keep my pickups running. i am excited about finding this board, and hope to get repair and maintainance tips to keep um truckin as long as i can. i just paid $650 for a new fuel pump installed in the 1996, so i decided to do more repair work myself. i am also am looking for ideas on restoration. |
