    New and just wanna say Hi

     



    Hello All,
    I am new to forums and new to Hot Rodding.. I lost my 88 corvette last year to hurricane Ivan. So I bought a 40 Chevy PU and started to make it a real Hot Rod.. I have put the Corvette suspension under it with shockwave v.3 air ride shocks. I put the blown 421 ci SBC that was in the Vette. Should make a pretty decend Rod...

    Sounds even cooler than a Vette! The wheels look good on there too. Welcome.
