A friend recommended this as I'm in the market for a 67-72 Chevy/GMC P/K and I'm currently negotiating for a truck with a member of this site. I look forward to being able to glean valuable information from this site and hopefully contribute as well. Mark krue 02-21-2005, 08:42 PM Welcome to the board everyone!

Got to be done soon though, "Bluebonnet Cruise" coming up Aprl 8th! The "real" project is a ground up 46 Burb Street Rod. Appears to be lots of experience and wisdom on this site.

Florida. I own a 1992 GMC K1500 4X4. I'm the second owner after the original owner had to give her up because of a medical condition.

See ya on the boards. [Life is but a tire swing....] biggmc24 03-22-2005, 01:44 AM Hi everyone... Haven't posted yet, I guess I've been a member for a bit. I have a 77 GMC swb 4x4. 4 inch lift, 35"s, 350/w350 trans. 208 case, 12 bolt and 44 axels. Warn 8274, billet grill, and lots of billet interior. Clear tails, keyless entry alarm, best mod!! I've done everything on this truck, stock on 31's when I got it. But I have alot of other things taking up my time, so she doesn't do much right now. Anyway.....check my cardomain, page 4 I think. I will post more pics soon also. Later http://members.cardomain.com/3gn86lxi k240sdriver 03-24-2005, 11:28 AM Hi all- My name's Mark, and I'm in northern California rebuilding a 1970 3/4 ton 4X4 p/u. Truck has always been in my family (my father drove it home from the dealer) and over the time it's been mine it's shown me why my grandfather (the original owner) refused to sell it. Pretty basic truck, but has the 350. Right now I'm replacing the bed (old one was badly battered hauling flagstone off a rockslide in Wyoming which a civil engineer swore could never be accessed by road). Looking to keep it as original as possible/feasible, though I went ahead and replaced the original split rims with solid wheels (got tired of breaking them down myself and all the odd looks I got at tire shops when I asked for radial tubes and flaps). The more I learn about this truck the happier I am- I really would like to make it into a good-looking daily driver... :cool: KdawgS10 03-25-2005, 11:32 PM names keller im a mini trucker I have owned more S10s than I care to list on hear.

Dave everisto grimaldo 04-29-2005, 01:04 AM I'm so glad that someone actually took the time to put this site together, I've liked this style forever. Right now we have three, they are nice but not quite show quality. Just something to enjoy. I'm currently in Kuwait,so for the meantime I have to slow down with the trucks. Alan Potter 05-16-2005, 05:47 PM Hi everyone!! I'm new to this too. Restoring a '67 1/2 ton Fleetside. Lot's of good info here. Retired a year ago, enjoying life. jamis 05-25-2005, 07:21 PM Hey to all the new members Liz said we needed to welcome the new members or she would put a stick in our eyes. Just remember to stay away from Liz Werewolf 06-09-2005, 07:22 PM Well, I'm brand new too, and despite this being a sticky thread, I didn't notice it when I wrote my other intro. Sorry! :P No sense in repeating myself, all the "fun stuff" is in my other post. Bishops Trucks 06-15-2005, 08:31 AM My name is Jim and I live in Manassas, Va. I own a 1971 Chevy C/10 that I am building into an "SS 396" truck with an M-21 Muncie and 12-bolt posi rearend. My daily driver is a 1971 Chevy Short bed, fleet side, 4x4 Cheyenne Super with a 350 H.O. crate motor. I also have a 1970 something C/20 Chevy truck with a 350, Granny gear 4-speed, Dana rears. This truck has a blown head gasket and I am going to let this one go. Looking forward to hearing from fellow truck buffs. :new: stueber68 06-16-2005, 04:48 PM Name is Eric and I own a few of the 67-72 Chevy and GMC era now several in the past. Current project being a 68 C20 I have a extra 1/2 ton SB frame and plan to combine the two. The only reason for this being that i haven't seen one. I have seen 1/2 tons with 3/4 ton axles on 4x4 trucks but this will be different. The powerplant is interesting and really seems to work well. 72 350 4 bolt main .030 over forged flat tops Vortec heads machined for .550 lift clearance. If you get the oppurtunity check out the Edlebrock "Air Gap" intake. They really do work well across the band. Hopefully i will get my act together and get some pics online to share with everybody such as you have. These trucks are about all I do if anybody has any question for me I would certainly be glad to be of service. Hey does anybody have a 14 bolt diff carrier they want to sell! :fb: a1gatorz 06-17-2005, 05:09 AM ]Hey all ,this site is the absolute SH** !

The 71 is my daily driver and is replacing my 86 Chev 1/2 ton. Any body have an idea as to where I might find info on the rear in my 71? I suspect it is an Eaton full floater, but can't confirm it or find a parts breakdown for it.
