Very cool rig.

I second that.

thank you Sirs... I appreciate the praise of the truck... and my future brother in law talked to me today about the 77 ( sorry thought it was a 78) GMC and asked if i still wanted it since i got this one and i said heck yeah... that one will mean more to the family than this on since it was their grandfather's...

just a little update... got the tailgate on the truck and it looks pretty good since i havent painted it or really adjusted it... the truck is finally running great now i just need to adjust the linkages for the 4wd. I used it to hillbilly plow my drive since we got like 8-10 inches of snow last week. she is worthless with the big tires without 4wd though in the snow... anyway here is the pic of her with the tailgate one....

well I sold it. I got a decent profit and am bringing home a 77 GMC Camper Special 4x4 with a 350 and a 4spd manual. with the 2 trucks I just didnt have the room with my other cars and it didnt have enough sentimental value to keep it. The guy that bought it seems like he will actually drive it (I'd rather see it driven then sit in my garage). The 77 is my fiance's grandfather's old truck. I am pretty stoked to get started with the resto on it but I think I will be looking for a nice southern c10 body to swap to it. It depends on what the body man says about the cab, fenders and bed i will definitely need... I will start a new topic when it comes to my garage....

That's a shame, but I know what you mean, too many toys - not enough time or space. Would be interested to see the new one...
