New Yooper...
Hi all!
Great to find another site to trade info on! I'm from the Upper Peninsula of MI, and I'm currently serving in the Army, living at Fort Riley, KS, but we're moving to San Antonio TX in 2 months. I own a 1964 Chev Stepside, 355 sbc, 10:1 c/r, kinda a mild street engine with 351hp/379tq at the flywheel, currently in progress with retrofitting brake lines, fuel lines, etc. Married, 3 rugrats, 2 cats, a 99 Ram 1500, and an 07 F@#$ Focus. Can't wait to start looking around to see what I can find! I have a decent amount of technical knowledge, so I'll help out when I can, but I'm still fairly new to the old truck scene, just got this one last June. Tony |

Re: New Yooper...
Thanks all!
From Kingsford, Paul! I've been to Ironwood, but just passing thru on the way to Duluth, MN. Won't be able to make the Midwest Nats, most likely, gonna be in San Antonio TX come May, but I may try to run the truck up there if I have the wiring done, and it's still running Depending on if I start tearing it apart to do the frame/suspension/bodywork on it this year or next. Tony
