New to the board....

Hello everyone! I am happy to be here - got lots of questions, and what have you. Here is what I am working on:

Just picked up a 1970 C/10 for a new project. It is going to be a lot of fun, as it has a 5.9L Cummins turbo diesel, with a huge ST50 turbo. It may not look like much now, but I will be lowering it (not sure if static or bagged - still doing research); custom interior - clean and simple; paint and some clean and classy 20 or 22" wheels. Still debating on stepside or just a regular short bed.

I will be getting her ready for some good fun, and to put the power down. Once I determine the direction for this, I will begin a build thread. Here are some pictures.

It sounds like one heck of a project, be sure to start a build thread to document your progress.

Re: New to the board....

thank you Nate - I definitely will. I have a lot of questions on this before I get started, but I surely will. In fact, I am going to head to the suspension forum to post my first question....

I never got to finish this truck. But I did get Dirty Dianah up and running. If you have not seen her, check out my signature.
