New from Houston
Hello everyone, I have a '70 shortwide I finished in 2005 and drive everyday. I completely dis-assembled it, a friend did the body and paint work, then I put it all back together. Thought I would join and see what other people are doing with there trucks and see if there are any subjects I could contribute to. I also have some parts left over from the build I want to sell on here. Have attached a few pics of the truck.

Re: New from Houston
Very nice looking truck!! Are there any places around Houston that has repair panels and parts for the 67-72 chevy? I would like to be able to put my eyes on the parts I need so I don't order the wrong things.
