Title: well bought back my old stepside!
Post by: 77GMCSTEPSIDE on May 27, 2013, 03:24:07 am
couple years ago i believe it was 2009 actaully but i bought a 77 gmc stepside 4x4  with a 350 for 600 bucks well the cam shaft shaved a lobe off and i sold it i regretted it every day so last weekend i called my buddy up who i sold the truck to and he agreed to sell it back to me so as of last night i now have my old stepside back but with a few minor mods here are some pics and tell me what you think :)

here it is when i owned it the first time!
