Title: Rebuild 1985 GMC 4X4
Post by: countryboy42 on March 30, 2014, 05:37:00 pm
Hi all! I have a 1985 GMC extended cab 4x4 with 6.2 diesel that I am wanted to get redone from the ground up. Does anyone know of a good custom shop that does everything from the engine/transmission, suspension, and bodywork? Thanks in advance!

     GM built them for a few years 84 or so through 86 maybe, zeig and choptop have them on this site.  There is also a company out of Texas that was converting them for awhile.

I believe they all came out of CIA in Texas, GM just licensed them to do the conversion. I do not think GM built any straight from factory.
