Yet another newbie from AZ
Hey Everyone!
I live in Queen Creek which is a small town on the southeast side of Phoenix. I've been around old bowtie pickups since I was old enough to sit on the curb and watch my dad lay under his old GMC with a brake spoon or drain the old canister oil filter. That was probably close to 30 years ago. Man, how time flies! I have a '65 C-10 that I've had for about 15 years and a '71 basket case GMC that I recently acquired from my uncle. My brother has had a couple of '64's and a '66. I'm currently helping my dad with an engine transplant in his tired old '64 Suburban. (He's had a '64 C-20, the Burb, and a couple of '69 GMC's). Needless to say, we love our classic GM iron! Here's my current inventory: '64 Buick Wildcat '65 C-10 longbed '70 Chevy Monte Carlo '71 GMC 2500 (needs help) '98 Chevy S-10 '99 GMC C2500 Suburban Sorry for rambling, but I think I just found a place where I have a lot in common with a lot of other good folks!
