So I own a Harley and a 2 seater commercial work van. This was great till I got a GF and adopted her 4 kids. That all happened 1 year ago and, well, they still here living in my house. I guess they aint going any place soon. So i decided I better get a family car. I really didnt want a family car, I wanted a square body C10 I could take to the 1/8 mile drag strip and let off some steam. But now it also needs to pick up kids from school on occasion, oh and the occasional ice cream. Thats it. I use my van to go to work and my Harley when i go out places on my own. I just need a Ice cream truck and school bus. So I rolled everything together and decided. Square Body Drag Burban. I know its gonna take a lot of ponies and may never win any trophies but if I can reach 10's in a 1/8 mile or better Ill be happy. My kids helping me a lot. They love the burb. They Mom hates it of course. had to force her to ride in it and she wasnt a happy camper.

What ive done so far:

Rebuilt TBI kit and Rebuilt injectors.
Scotch Bright all the rust down to metal and oiled it

Anyways im glad to find this forum and all you square heads out there. Feel like I found my home now. Hope im in the right place lol.
