Re: I swear they find me......72' Short fleet.

Nothing wrong with it.. just kinda out of the norm

I like to think like the truck and figure out from a history perspective how it got that way. Thats all. The black GMC I have now had a silver painted bed in it. It was strange stuff. Not really paint.. but not really bedliner either.

Then when I tore the suspension down it had all been painted with this stuff too. Its odd what some people do.

Re: I swear they find me......72' Short fleet.

Yeah,I agree on the caps w/whitewalls & blue wheels. Gettin' a bit over color coordinated there (unless you cover the buckets with blue & white candy stripes)

Re: I swear they find me......72' Short fleet.

Im out for a bit and come back to another beautiful find.
Teaches me to go off and break a foot.

Not the best truck you've ever had but it ties for best truck you ever had.

I bet those two shifters will confuse a few people! Ha.
Any plans to throw any lower mouldings on this truck?
I think it would look sweet!

I swear you were reading my mind Keith, a lower black molding would look fabulous, then I guess I would have to lower it after all. Sh#t I come this far, what's a little more.
