new from NEPA

[WHITExOBS]

Hey guys, a few months ago I bought a 97 ccsb that was a total rot box. Only usable parts were the rear axle, cab, engine/trans, and radiator. So I'm in the middle of a complete ground up resto while upgrading the engine to get a few more ponies galloping out of it, and supporting mods for the extra power.

Ill post up a project thread sometime, for now just introducing myself and saying hi.

I'm closer to wilkesbarre than Scranton.

But welcome. I keep finding more member from the areas I frequent.

Thanks for the welcomes.

Here's a picture of what's going on so far. Also have a new cclb frame painted and ready for the cab and drivetrain to go back in it.

Welcome to PSA! I'm about an hour and a half north of you in montrose. Nice headers on the ol 7.3!

Thanks everybody. Managed to get the engine and trans into the new frame yesterday. But silly me forgot to move the trans cross member for an auto trans (frame was a 5speed truck). Its quite a chore building a truck that is the same length as your garage haha.

And that's why I go to Dickson city and not wilkesbarre. Can't wait to graduate in the spring, work for the gas companies up rt11 for 6months to a year and move south somewhere. You make bank working for the gas companies.
