Another member from MD

My name is John and I live on the eastern shore of MD.I just recently purchased a 1966 GMC 1000 with a v8 swap.After finally tracking down the suffix code URP,I discovered that the engine is a 350 block that has 305 heads on it.It has a 3 on the tree but will soon be converted to a automatic.It is orange and white in color and has matching interior colors.I purchased this beauty for a mere 2500 bucks from the Auto dealership I work for.
Sorry I don't have many pics yet due to time restraints but here is a starter pic for you guys.

Re: Another member from MD

Thanks.It's not in too bad of shape.The first thing I did when I got it home was swapped the quadra-junk out for a 600 cfm edelbrock.Also put on chrome valve covers and a edelbrock air cleaner on it.Now I need to get off my tookus and put Edelbrock Performer EPS intake on and the new set of headers I bought last night.

Re: Another member from MD

Cambridge MD huh i used to have a place in Hurlock which i used as a vacation home on my buddys property. He still lives down there. At one time i was going to move there permanantly in the late eighties but my wife at the time didnt want to so i sold off things there and i visit from time to time. I used to have a couple of friends that lived on Oakley Street in Cambridge and I was all set to work for Willow Construction down there...I have some fond memories of your town.. fishing in the choptank river before they put in the new bridge.. heck i even remember the Ames and some of the places on Rte 50.. do they still make great subs in the shell station off rte 50 by 16 near wal mart? I heard that they turned the state psych hospital into a hotel now

this shell station was( if memory serves correct) near the wal mart and they filled the subs to the brim with meat and the owner used to also sell the gas station toy trucks and had quite a collection in the dining room.
the people i knew on oakley street got divorced and he moved down rte 16 somewhere and she moved to Trappe I havent been down there in a couple of years and I havent really been down there for any length of time since the late nineties
