1966 GMC 4x4 Toolbox

[17again]

Hey guys, Im brand spankin' new to the forum, but I'm not so new to the 60-66 scene. This is my 4th 39-66 (my preferred year window) truck I've built. May seem like an amateur, right? Truth, Im 17 years old and a senior in high school. I buy and build all my OWN trucks, with no (financial) help from my parents. I picked up this 1966 3/4 ton 4x4 GMC from an auction when I was a sophomore, from the Union City Fire Department. Here's a little about the truck:
Factory 4x4//Dana 4:56 rear w/detroit locker//dana 4:54 open front
Factory 3/4 ton suspension//16.5 split rims
Factory transmission mounted PTO
Factory utility body "tool box"
Factory 305 "Big Block" v6//power brakes on a single master//4 speed//recirculating heater//dual exhaust

The truck has 1,281 miles on it, TOTAL. This is true, documented (literally) miles. Hearing that, you may be thinking this truck is in ACE shape? Wrong-o! The bottom front corner of the passenger door, and drivers rocker is very church-like (holy! ) Ive already done the passengers rocker, and the back corner of the passenger fender. The hood corners are good. The center of the hood has had body work done previously, and was done poorly, so that will need done. The front ring gear is completely worn out, as the fire co. kept the truck in 4x4 the entire time they owned it The bottom 4 rear leafs have worn and broke, on both sides, due to the 850 lb. pumper they kept in the bed. It has so far been an excellent project, and a great way for me to better myself with glazing on bodies. Im a welder and prep-ster in a local body shop, so all I ever get to play with is metal, almost never any mud. Also drive tow trucks for the body shop, and work as a part time mechanic in a local garage.) I have already bought for the truck a heavy front bumper with winch brackets, an 8,000 lb. Braden Winch, a brand new set of wheels and tires, and other odd's and ends (hooks, interior parts, spot lights, etc.) Ive already wasted enough of your time, now I'll let the pictures do the talking. I hope for some tips and advice here, and i also hope im welcome to stay
