Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Thanks Jim
I am forming the plan in my head.I am using the flat deck, static drop and of course a unique diesel motor. It will be built to be driven.
Thanks we look forward to our October trip with the truck every year.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Very kool stuff there.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Changing out the crappy foam cowl vent seal for a hopefully better rubber one from "Steele".
Also giving the truck a check up before heading to the AD National show that is on Sept 21. I hope to see some of you there. 17,000 mi and counting.

Hi do you get your cowl vent seal from here or from the usa

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

USA its from Steele. So far works great

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Trip one went great zero problems there and back. 1200mi. My son and I had a great time at the AD National show over 40 trucks showed up, so many nice people. Friday before the show we did a cruse 20 min north to a car museum then went go carting. I finally shook this guys hand after all these years punching a key board. Great to finally meet you Rob.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Thank you Lowers,
Here is my 6500 (large front clip) 4x4 with an Onan six cylinder. I think these truck look a lot better with a visor.

That's nice upside down pictures. No wonder I never get that much work done. Loading the fire wood in an upside down trailer.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

congrats on the journey. Rob is a nice guy. I never met him personally. I'v been talking to shannonpanel on here for 10 yrs. We call about once a month or two and hes only about 3.5hrs away. Still haven't met him! The nats is getting bigger every year.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Ya no kidding throw wood in and it falls right back out humm maybe put a net over/under the trailer to catch the wood lol. Ya I agree with the visor.

There are lots of shows on my list.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Well our big fall trip is done. We where 2 weeks early this year due to my holiday schedule. So we decided to go tour the East coast of Canada. Heather and I with our 2 dogs had 2 weeks and traveled 4 provinces and 4 states. We spent time in New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia. Passed through Quebec, Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts and New York state. We had a great time, spent 10 nights either a few feet from the ocean or easy view of the ocean. Got home with 5120km or 3200mi, no problems at all with truck or trailer.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Hey Lowers,
Did you install your mirrors at the stock hight on your cowl? And where did you buy them? Your pictures from last year's trip look awesome!

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Ya sorry I could not get the time of year off to get to the show so we went east. We are planning on N.C. and S.C.
Yes stock location and got them from LMC
