Resto finally underway....

I finally have the finances and and help in place to restore my 71 GMC. I found a guy that has restored several Chevelles and Camaros. He is doing all of the body and paint work with my assistance. I am replacing every screw or part that is borderline.

Hopefully, in about 6-8 months, I will have a showroom new 71 Longbed custom 350 4bbl, auto, man. disc brakes, radio, all chrome, in dark olive/light olive two tone. All original.
