New to the board!!!
Hi all! My name isn't Charlie, it's the name of my 1976 GMC Sierra Classic camper special
 But feel free to call me Charlie. I've been wanting to join for a while but finally did it! I've had my truck since I was 15, I am now 18, wow time flies. My truck is, as many here know, my pride and joy! Currently ending my restoration on the truck as far as engines goes, putting in the original 454 BIG BLOCK CHEVY! taking out the 350 :P Hope to enjoy a long stay! Have a great day!

Re: New to the board!!!
Welcome to the board! Very nice looking truck! I remember being your age. I had my first car totaled just as I turned 18 (a '56 Chevy) and got my first new car (a '68 Camaro). Enjoy your truck! I'll be posting pictures of mine when I get it painted, the interior done, etc, etc, etc
 That grill is really great looking!
