    Newbie from WA

     



    Just stoppin by to say hi. I've got a 66 chevy c10 on airride w/ a built 350 and muncie m21. I'm 19 and in college at gonzaga currently but probably going to switch to WSU this summer. So far I'm hoping to have the truck in one piece again for the goodguys puyallup show as underconstruction. Oh yeah, I've also got a '64 galaxie which is my dad's first car and him and I have been working on that since I was 10, yes I got bit early by the hotrodding bug. That car is a piece of work but it's one of the factory 390 4 speed cars w/ bucket seats, and originally black on black car so it will look awesome when done. U wanna know other stuff bout me, just ask.. Glad to finally find a hotrod forum by the way as well. Here's a few pics....

    Like the way your 66 sits, thinking of adding the air ride to mine, whos system are you running and what do you think of it.

    Welcome to CHR leftcoast66. Nice Truck. Ya have any pics of the '64 galaxie put 'em up.

    I'm working on my car hoping to get it into the Mild To Wild show at the Tacoma Dome. Not sure if I'll make there but will be at the Goodguys show in Puyallup for sure.

    Thanks for all the posts, sorry, I've been studyin hard, I'm in college as a freshman. The truck has a MIC FBSS 1/4 inch manual valved airride kit. It's really mild, and next time I wouldn't do this kit. I would go w/ 3/8 and electric valves preferrably.
    No pics of the galaxie yet, its been in the garage for 16 years and pulled out once when I was 10. We finally got it out just before I left for college so didn't have time to get pics, just trying to get the new motor broken in and the car runnin. Hopefully spring break it'll come out of the garage and I'll get pics and the new radiator in.
    Good luck w/ the mild to wild show, if I were home I'd definately be going to that.
