My 72' just put new wheels and tires on it. And a pic of the wrecked one I saved from the clutches of doom.

What kind of wheels did you get?

I had some 15x10 steel wheels on it. Was tired of the noise of the off road tires and they were worn out and I don't take it off road much. So I went with 16x8 aluminum wheels and michelin tires. Much better ride! The beat up truck is going to get a new cab and flatbed and that will be my beater/winter driver/woods truck.

Bill, i just realized that was your truck back on post #1221 !
Good work!

Here's a 1970 K10 SWB still owned by friend of mine. We ran around in this pickup during high school way back when. Resto pending.

Pete,

Glad he held on to it over the years. Those are cool stories to hear. It looks pretty solid other than the rockers.

My pickup deemed ol' blue next to her younger sister ol' betsy 99 Sierra. Blue's a 1972 GMC Sierra but has the sierra grande equipment on the options sticker... If anyone could tell me why it wasnt badged a sierra grande thatd be awesome, i can only assume its because it doesnt have all the trim? Anyway im thinking of lifting her a bit, 4 or 6in? Im open to suggestions and what tire size?

My 79 4WD I built in 86. Kept it until 1995. 4 inch susp lift 3 inch body lift
38.5" Monster Mudders. 383 stroker motor auto trans. The 68 GMC I just picked up last weekend. Plan on a 6 inch lift and 38's on it as well. It has a 350 4spd. Or maybe put that body on a 2001 frame? Anyone here ever done that conversion? Maybe a late 80's chassis?

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 
Nice score on the 68. 6" lift wont work very well on the older truck you will need about 8" to keep the 38 from rubbing. I have 71 with 6" lift and 36" and adding 1" body lift to fit 37". I had a 84 I bough new for 24 years ran 6" lift 2" body and 38's. I miss that truck.
