Why Charlie Murphy?

My last major project was a 1970 Camaro that my wife named Cindy. When I decided I was going to keep my truck forever, I asked my wife what I should call the project. Her answer? Charlie Murphy.

Okay, so my wife named the truck Charlie Murphy after the Chappelle show skit.

Hey, I’m new to this!

Hello world!

Ha ha. It seemed only appropriate. What else would I choose as my first comment?

Okay, maybe you didn’t get the joke…

Anywho, I’m starting this blog as an online record of my Silverado buildup. I’ve never blogged in my life, so bear with me. I’m sure there will be misspellings and typos. I’m sure it won’t be as polished as others, but what I can assure you is, it will be accurate. I’m a complete nerd about researching things.

In the past I built up a 1970 Camaro on nastyz28.com.

Here’s a link to the project thread:

1970 Camaro Project “Cindy”

I enjoyed writing the thread quite a bit. This time around, with my next major project, I’m going to try blogging instead. At some point I may rewrite the Cindy thread through WordPress. Who knows?

So a small introduction. My name is Justin and I live in Oregon. I am passionate about Chevy’s. I’ve wanted to build a LS engine ever since they came out. But, I can’t justify having 2 Camaros, or a Corvette. So I did the next best thing I could think of. I bought a Silverado that has an engine that’s sort of a cousin to the LS engine. That’s what this blogs all about.
