What's up guys. I'm Rob. I've been trolling (not in a negative way) for a while bouncing from thread to thread. Figured I would join and get involved.

My current project is a 1990 RCSB Chevy. My dad bought the truck new and we've spent a lot of time together doing minor mods. The truck is now mine so it's time to go crazy.

I've been ordering exterior parts for the last 3 weeks and they've slowly been arriving. Headlights, taillights, corners, cowl hood, mirrors, tailgate handle relocation "kit", gauge pod. I'm still waiting on a call back from Bogart to order my wheels. Body work and paint are going to be done this winter.

I plan on building a 408ci+ motor and running either a direct port nitrous set up or turbo.

I look forward to talking and learning a lot more.

Sounds like it will be a nice truck. I just sold my 1989 with a 98 front end. I rebuilt it to tow a 28ft go fast boat and loved it. Good luck on your project.
