First time truck project.
I have been messing with cars for years and I need a truck,so I thought I would build one. I picked up a 1976 GMC with 55k miles on it,the body is ruff but I have a rust free cab and SWB frame and bed. Here are some pictures. Ed

Re: First time truck project.
Welcome from a fellow 77'er! I live in Hot Springs, AR. but am currently working overseas in Afghanistan. Truck looks like it's in fair shape to make for a good project - hope to see pics as you go along! Love the GMC's & don't see enough of them on here...
