New member from Alabama

Post by BamaFan »

Hello to everyone, just joined up but have been visiting for a few months.
I recently purchased a 71 Custom Swb with a 240 six and three on the tree. I cant wait to get started restoring the truck, it will be my first. Looking forward to learning about these trucks from all of you.[/list]

Thanks guys for the huge welcome. I plan on doing a complete resto on the truck. The 240 will be replaced with a 302 and a C4. In the process of getting parts together right now, almost there. I will post pictures and updates when I get started. Thanks again.
