Hi everyone new to this, this is my first car. 1969 c10, I'm 17. I'm trying to get as static as possible. I've been thinking about the porterbuilt stage 1 kit but eh just not sure. I'll keep everyone posted on all that I do to my truck

Welcome aboard, I am not into the whole lowered thing, I have outgrown that. I have not out grown the fact that a young gun coming up wanting to learn something about his truck. If you need anything I can help with holler. I own a body shop and usally hang here and the paint and body section but you can message me if you need something. Jim

Congrats on the new ride!. Welcome to the SickNess!!

HA HA I remember my first Chevy... '79 1/2 ton with a wooden bed.... Totally a hillbilly party ride (drove around with a wooden picknick table screwed to the bed for a month, complete with paper plates and plastic ware stapled to the top.

Ahhh, memories

Nice ride man! My first vehicle was a 72 blazer. I desperately wanted a short bed from day one though. I just now (17 years later) I finally got the short bed I always wanted. It looks like your truck is lowered already a bit.

Very nice first set of wheels, congrats. My good friend got a 68 Chevy truck as his first set of wheels when he was 17 also, 33 years, one and a half tear downs later and now a new carb, and back to stock exhaust, his truck is still looking as good as it always did. Don't beat it up, you got yourself wheels that speak out loud already (BAD@$$) put your hard earned money into it when nesserseay, make sure it's road worthy. Use this forum as it can be very helpful, good people here. In my opinion that truck sits just right.

I wouldn't do anything to that truck except add gasoline and change the oil as needed.

Why mess with it? The stance is perfect as it sits. You are 17, drive and enjoy it for a while.

Looks awesome just like it sits. Fill it up and drive on.
