Hey Howdy Hey

Hi everybody, new to the boards so I wanted to introduce myself. My name is Derek, I am 20 and I live in Nebraska. I recently bought a 1976 C-10 which I plan to customize. I have been lurking for a while and this seems to be a great group. This is not my first project but I am looking forward to participating in the boards, and getting feedback from all you people who have done this before.

Peace, Derek

Tom- I will see what I can do

The mudflaps, bed rails, and bugshield are soon to be gone. they follow the bed-mounted spare, and toolbox.

Unfortunately, the next mods will be mechanical, not cosmetic. But I will post pics of the monster powerplant as she progresses. Also hoping to find some OEM 15x8 rallyes; if anyone has any leads I would appreciate it.

Thanks again for the welcome, Derek
