Progress Report

[cysko9]

Its been some time since i've posted any updates on my project. Actually, aside from pictures I put up of the origional truck I bought, this might be it. Anyway, I'm about ready to wrap things up for the winter so I wanted to post a few pictures. Well, more than a few.

I'll start with some background... This is the 1969 GMC I bought about 4 years ago. I'd never done a resto before and had very little idea about what I was getting into.



After spending the winter tearing every last bolt off of the thing, I realized that I'd rather spend my time working on a short bed. After weighing my options I went bought a SWB frame from a member up in Roseville.

I went to work on it, having it blasted and powdercoated, and then began spending the $$$. Here's the frame with an airbag suspension being installed. The front is a coolride and the rear is something I kindof rigged up with some mounts from suicidedoors.
