Man, I am just digging the hell out of those wood rails on the stepside. Definitely going to do similar on mine when I get to that point.

I took a long cruise yesterday with two other members to The Filling Station in Lebanon, Oregon. Here are a few I took of my '68 after we got back. We had a blast, by the way!

I included a couple of pictures of my 67 GMC I built a few years back. The 400+ HP small block was Natural Gas (CNG) injected, but could also run on gasoline with the flip of a switch. CNG was about $!.15 an equivalent gallon and 130 octane. that why the vanity plate said "My Gas"

My current 68 was factory built in Fremont California, ordered new through our only GM dealership by a local rancher. I've known their family over 30 years.

The 68 GMC stayed on their cattle ranch exclusively for over 40 years. Clays Uncle Vinnie not knowing where the dipstick was on any vehicle, ran the 307 V8 low on oil and spun rod bearings. The truck sat by their barn under a tree for about 12 years, not running. My buddy Steve was the rural UPS driver and being a car guy, pestered the family for years until they finally sold it to him to shut him up. Steve did little with it, until he saw my buddy Sals 55 Chevy step-side. Steve sold the 68 GMC to me to raise some of the cash for the 55. I came home and sold my old 79 Chevy 4X4 we'd had for 21 years the next day and here we are. WHEW!

Unlike the 67, I'm going to preserve the worn patina look on this 68 (it's original with some small over painted areas, get rid of the Chevy tail-gate and alloy wheels, do a moderate drop and go to early Corvette style rally wheels, 10" wide with 275-60-15 BFGs and drive it.

:gmc2:

Welcome...nice trucks...I bet the Miata is a blast to drive.

That's a Blue-tiful Truck Ned NICE!

Thanks Slow-1, My Miata was on Stacey David's Gearz "What are you workin' on" many years ago and since then has been more fun to show & drive than I can explain. It's got about 12,000 since I built it, getting close to time to sell it, somebody else's turn.
Thanks for the kind words - Lee

I remember seeing the miata in there. You did a great job stuffing the vette motor in it. I rode in one that had the stick motor in it on a road course.. Man it handled really good!

I know what you mean, I ordered a new 20gal fuel tank 2 weeks ago and still not in plus am going with a few others to a major Cruise weekend Aug 23rd to 25th this weekend and driving down, my tank is fine but not my sending unit so not cool, hope it comes soon or travelling with no fuel guage about 350 miles each way. Should be interesting to say the least. Still going no matter what though.
