hey whats up everyone, i'm dustin.
actually just bought my 1981 Chevrolet Silverado yesterday!!
little info about me, i've owned a couple of Hondas the past 3 years. i've been driving since i was 16, and i am now 18 going on 19.
my 91 civic got totaled, so i sold it for a good price since it was still running, and i went and bought this truck.
i'm kinda new to the truck scene, but i've been around the domestic scene for about a year and a half.
so......words can only explain, but i'll let the pics speak for itself

has the usual rust spots near the trim on the cab, the lower cab corners and the rockerpanels, but those will soon be replaced.
as far as the motor, it is a 350 with dual plane edelbrock intake manifold, 650 carb, longtubes, full exhaust, 350 trans with a shift kit.
i'm loving this truck haha.

Hello and Welcome to the Forum, Dustin!! ![Big Grin](https://chevroletforum.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Congrats on the new (to you) truck! It looks very nice. Those rocker panels on the Silverado's always seem to rust.
