Hey, I just wanted to check in and let you guys know what an amazing site this is! I started a business from a lifelong hobby and convinced my very understanding wife that a Big Bolt would be a great shop truck and rolling advertisement (she's going to do the door graphics. She's a heck of an artist, but painting on metal will be new for her). The forums and tech sections on this site have been an amazing wealth of information. I picked up a 53 6400 on Ebay that, I admit, came with more than a few surprises. At this point I'm focusing on a few cosmetics and then getting it mechanically up to snuff. I'll do a repaint down the road. 1st things 1st, I've got to get rid of the "widow makers". I've got 3 small kids and safety is a big one.
Oh, and I supose getting the 8.1L conversion in my 90 GMC done so I don't interupt our camping trips (I gotta keep the wife happy), but I'd rather be working on the 53.
I'll post pics when I can.
Thanks
