Thanks dude. I've been off here for a while. Been out of the country for a little bit of work. Just wanted to say hello and thanks for becoming a member of the "CLASSIC" C10's man. I posted a few more pics of mine if you want to indulge. Yes I built her from ground zero and finally finished. Have a good one man!! Keep with yours and stay with it. This dude is a mule: 327 block heavy cam 350 CORVETTE LT1 heads, ported and polished. She's a SCREAMER. She screams "BITCH" every now and again!!! LOL Have a good one Brother
