Thumbs up New to the site.... and just getting started...

What's up guys, just bought a 1980 c10 step with a 350 and started searching the web for info/ideas and came across this site.. looks to be a ton of both here.

here are the pics the guy used to sell the truck:





it went from his door to my mechanics to get it running right and smog passable.. should get it back later today...

it has a few things that have to go, the back window is plexi with a recessed license plate that has to go (which will get rid of all the stickers), a bunch of purple lights, that front plate and a few other things..

then off to paint and interior next week...

Let the fun begin!!!
