Proper Introduction - Lateral-g Forums

ccracin · #1 10-17-2006, 06:36 PM

Hi All,
I guess I never really did properly introduce myself. I'm Chad from Rostraver, PA. I've made several posts lately, but never really let anyone know who I was. I have been working on cars all my life. I have a 69 Camaro (I guess I fit in) that my dad and I did 20 years ago. I'll try to find a picture. Since then I became an Engineer and have spent the last 10 years in circle track racing. It is now time to hit the streets again. Dad and I are teaming up to build a new project, A 1968 Chevy C-10 Shortbed. I am currently designing the chassis and developing ideas for the rest of the truck. Being an Engineer and having access to some cool tools, I am doing the design work in 3D. I am just getting back into the swing of things, it's been a while since did the modeling. I'll post some examples of preliminary work. I posted a question in the EFI section about the engine, any help would be very appreciated. We have the truck and an engine, it's a start. Anyway I look forward to the discussions. On to some pictures. The black and orange truck is a paint scheme I did in House of Color's digital paint booth.

Thanks for the intro, Chad. Looking forward to seeing the truck come together.

Welcome, Chad. I've always been a fan of '67-'72 Chevy trucks, so keep those pics rolling in.

Welcome Chad.... The '67-'72 P/U is on my top 10 'want to build' list of project vehicles. They make for a great pro-touring, pro-street and g-machine project. Looking forward to seeing your progress.

Are you in the Charlotte area?

Payton,

No, I am just outside of Pittsburgh, PA.
