Hello, just got my 1983 Chevy Shorty here in North Carolina and starting to hopefully move it forward. Was a New Mexico van for most of its life so there is very little, to no rust! Was a plumbers van but really was to abused except for the ladder rack which was the first thing to go! Has a 305 V8 in it and it runs, but will need some love. Got a small list of items that I need to run down that are not coming up too easily on the internet. All in all, just wanted one of these for a long time and now I have one to work on! First thing is to change out front tires for something a bit smaller in size as they rub.Looking forward to reading all the information I can find on the site...

Hello to all...and thanks for the welcome. I really didn't feel the earthquake...because I was already out in the garage. The wife and daughter sure did! Second one since we moved here many years ago.
