Title: New guy from Ontario Canada Eh!
Post by: magicmarker77 on November 04, 2010, 03:26:18 pm
Hi
Just picked up a couple of 81GMC P/U's
One is a short box fleet side the other a Stepside.  I Plan on taking the two and making one nice one!
The fleet side is from Georgia but the clown that had it before me didn't take great care of it so it needs a box side and of course cab corners, but the floors etc are mint! A hard thing to find up here especially if they have seen a couple of winters. The step side has a really great box no holes and really good body panels but is a 250 straight 6
I'm still up in the air about how I want to look (step side or fleet side), but lowering 4 inches is in the cards
And I may do a retro rod type look satin paint, red rims, white walls etc
I'll get some pic's up soon
Cheers!
