Re: New member from Pearland, Texas
Very nice truck neighbor! I also live in Pearland (over by the ninth grade center & natotorium). I hope you plan on taking your GMC to the cruise night at Home Depot. I am planning to have my 72' burb out there this Friday.

Re: New member from Pearland, Texas
Nice looking truck! Welcome to the board from east TN!
Are you going to convert to disc brakes also? I'm assuming it still has 6-lug drum brakes. If so, do you plan to swap to 5-lug or keep it 6-lug?

Re: New member from Pearland, Texas
Great looking SWB truck!
I installed a 4.5/6" drop on my '69 and wouldn't go with any other static drop; also kept the 6-lug setup as well. Can't wait to see what you can do with the project!
