Great site you all have here! New from KS!
I've spent the better part of the last couple days wandering around in here - there sure are a lot of nice trucks, and a lot of experience too!
My avatar shows what my truck looked like when I bought it, before it got run into by a pizza delivery guy in the parking lot of the muffler shop. Since it got banged up, I decided I might as well pull it apart and fix everything I could. Rebuilt a 350 I had, and had the TH400 done - now I just need to finish the body work, suspension, brakes, steering, wiring ... I've tried to attach a couple more recent pictures. I've got a lot of work to do, and I've already had a lot of 'firsts' on this truck (first time doing body work, suspension work, welding). It'll also be my first time painting. Hopefully you won't mind if I ask you all some questions to help me out!

Re: Great site you all have here! New from KS!
Thanks for the welcome, guys.
Here's another of the truck "as bought". Following that is a picture from the front after the pizza delivery guy hit it at the muffler shop (Think that frame is bent?) rage'nrat638: You're right, that is my sweetie in the background. It's not a truck, but hopefully you'll forgive me if I post just one pic... Hopefully the truck comes out as well!
