hello,
Just wanted to introduce myself. I'm zack, from central lower Michigan area. I purchased an 1987 chevy v20 custom deluxe about 6 months ago. Truck is over all original minus pass door, and rims/tires. Truck is very solid with minimal rot for a salt belt truck. Has 127k miles on it with a 5.7 tbi and auto, with floor shift tcase. Has a few pens size holes on lower fender areas and drivers rocker has a hole. Worst part of the truck is the drivers floor is rotted. I will be doing all the body work and paint work myself aswell as any mechanical work. I've been dailying the truck on and off. Itll be a slow build to start but once I get a new place with a shop I hope it picks up speed. Thanks for having an awesome forum for these trucks.

Thanks. Look forward to all suggestions and info I receive here. I'm no licensed mechanic, but I've rebuilt plenty of trucks and have a good knowledge on mechanics, but it'll be nice having helpful info from members who have spent countless hours on these trucks.

forgot to mention, I have new inner fenders, battery tray, o2 sensor waiting to go on. Already did a coolant temp sensor, led headlights, cluster lights, and front fender markers. I purchased the truck for 2500 bucks and drove it 2hrs home down the highway. It had new battery, radiator, plugs/wires/cap, fuel pump/sending unit.
