Hey y'all...I'm new to the forum and wanted to post some pics of our 1983 we purchased last summer. 29k mile, one owner.

SWB conversion (I know I am going to get some hate for this), nevertheless, it's what I like.

4/5 static drop with c-notch.

The 305 is a dog so we're swapping a 350 sbc with a little more power (if anyone is looking for a low mileage 305, DM me).

Look forward to learning from you all.

Cool truck. Looks great with your changes. I also think it would have looked great without cutting the longbed short.
Welcome regardless. Truck looks badass!
