**Steeveedee** · 06-30-2022, 07:58 PM

Wes,
My Ochre 71 Longhorn would look better up there and that GMC would look better down here....

Nice combo

Keith Seymore · 07-01-2022, 06:48 AM

Sounds like they need to strap them to the truck better.

**uncle** · 07-01-2022, 07:46 AM

Everybody needs at least 2 Longhorns.

Cool, like minded trucks stick together

**kwmech** · 07-01-2022, 01:43 PM

Wish my longhorn was a GMC.

bry593 · 07-01-2022, 02:42 PM

It's caused by a disease. There is no cure, but wives are mostly immune. I'll pray for you, that your wife is sympathetic to your plight.

**jocko** · 07-01-2022, 02:45 PM

I'm surrounded by Longhorns down here, but they all just stand around and moo. Nice find!

**special-K** · 07-01-2022, 07:46 PM

Wes, you're making me feel inadequate for not having a Longhorn

57taskforce · 07-01-2022, 08:29 PM

Seems perfectly normal to me but what can I say. I’m starting to acquire a pretty good collection of my own over here. Glad you are doing well Wes.

**Canadian694x4** · 07-01-2022, 08:56 PM

I like it! Hope there is ONE left I can get my hands on one day

jumpsoffrock · 07-01-2022, 11:47 PM

OH c'mon Wes don't be a tease, let's get some interior, engine bay, SPID pics!!!!

There, fixed that for ya...

Solid preservation candidate! Buff out original factory colors, keep the white bumper, keep the factory Retrac mirrors, add couple of pieces of trim, period hubcaps! Walaa!

**special-K** · 07-02-2022, 09:04 PM

Yeah, I noticed those mirrors... D38 Bus Type Extension Mirrors! I've never had a truck with those. Nice GMC Custom Camper!

factorystock · 07-02-2022, 09:33 PM

The mirror head has obviously been replaced with a substandard piece.
