Welcome from Ok! What project do ya have?

jayc_wyatt · 02-25-2009, 11:33 PM

Thanks again for the welcomes.

I currently am searching for a 72 SWB C-10. My grandfather passed away last year and that was his pride and joy until my uncle wrecked it a few years back. My grandpa and I always talked about building one but didn't get a chance to. I have been looking for one that I can do a frame - off resto on but I haven't found a suitable starter truck yet.

I'm familiar with the C-10 world because my first vehicle was a 79' K-10 that I customized. It had a 6" lift with 35's on it. I loved that truck until I had to let it go.
