Hey Hey newb from the First state

Post by Mrbarky »

Figured I would say whats up all. I have a 92 Astro bodydropped on 22's for now. I'm planning on complete overhaul this winter budget willing. But I think the only thing the budget will dictate is rim size so we shall see. Here are a few pics of my beater.
