Hope this is the right section... well anyways here goes, my dad has had a 71 gmc ton dump truck for about 20 years and its been a little bit neglected so we decided to do a little tlc and the well we have had the typical problems plus some others where the previous owner had not fixed things the right way. this truck is still gonna be a work truck but so some of the things we would do on our show car restos we are skipping out on... basically we are fixing a few problems and doing a scuff and shoot. here is a before and a few in progress shots... will take more later and along the way

jus2qwk · 02-20-2012, 09:18 AM

here are the plans for the truck
-floor pans
-inner rockers
-cab supports
-weld up any unused holes for a good clean look
-67-68 front end conversion

Little update

jus2qwk · 05-22-2012, 08:42 AM

I haven’t updated this in a while but lots of progress has been made on the truck. Come to find out the cab, doors, and fenders weren’t hardly worth fixing and if we would have bought new stuff it would probably be done by now but this is a budget build so we fixed the junk we had laying around. The truck is now painted and we are working on cleaning up the motor and Trans and getting the frame painted. This has been one hell of a scuff and shoots!

Thanks! the problem is once you do one right you cant really go back to doing things half way.. case and point.

jus2qwk · 05-28-2012, 04:52 PM

just a little update, got the engine all cleaned up and painted and the frame painted, cab set on the truck and rear window installed.

Coboyle04 · 05-29-2012, 01:42 PM

Tinkermc · 05-30-2012, 11:57 PM

looks very nice and you should be proud.

NewType72 · 05-31-2012, 12:46 AM

Very, very nice!! Love the paint scheme!

jus2qwk · 06-18-2012, 01:07 PM

Thanks! Never in a million years would I have thought that a gray with no metallic would have looked good but Dad proved me wrong. I think that paint scheme might look good on a swb fleet side…… maybe a new project in the works

jus2qwk · 06-22-2012, 07:04 PM

another update... almost done

Coboyle04 · 06-22-2012, 07:14 PM

wow. i want that!

jus2qwk · 06-24-2012, 12:30 PM

cool pic I took today. still working on getting all the lights working and doing some other work on the interior

zpi28 · 06-24-2012, 01:12 PM

That is a sweet truck. I have been looking at a 65 C30 1ton with a flat bed. That is very inspiring.

jus2qwk · 07-08-2012, 04:35 PM

Finally done! well for now

*truckmanloco* · 07-08-2012, 05:16 PM
