Progress on the GMC
Well, I said earlier in January of this year that I would have this in paint by Spring. Well, I did. Almost got it back together. Should have it completed by Summer time cruising.....btw, the wheels are going away.....Plan on rallies...Oh, almost forgot the before picture.......

Re: Progress on the GMC
Thanks...I am having second thoughts on the front suspension swap. I have both 6 lug and 5 lug rally wheels and also 71 front disc spindles and use 6 lug rotors, if I go that way. Still undecided. Either way, this will have disk brakes when completed. Waiting until the exterior of the truck is completed before starting on the suspension.

Re: Progress on the GMC
Still no owners manual yet. Not really looking. I plan on some type of spray bed liner. Got part of the grill on today. Here's another picture.....

Re: Progress on the GMC
You can get those hoods just about from any vendor. They average around $400.00. I lucked out and got mine local for $376.00....
