Hi All

I picked up my first ever project a couple weeks go, 1983 Short Box. It has very minimal rust but needs some love. The guy I bought it from used to drag race it 10 or so years ago and has been driven very little since. It currently has a Big Block with a cam, heads and headers. Its backed by a TH400 and 12 bolt with a posi.

The garage is already starting to fill up with new parts, I can't wait to start tearing into it.

-Josh

Welcome from the Buckeye State. Nothing like an old Chevy truck with a big block !!

Welcome from the Black Hills of South Dakota. Looks like a great start. Must not be originally from Minn, looks to be pretty rust free.:D

Howdy!

I really like that the big block trucks seem to be coming out of the woodwork! For a while there, they seemed to be going out of style.

Approximately where from in MN? Great state IMO. I've lived there 2x. NW corner and SE corner. Know lots of people in-between.
