68 GMC Project Tommy

[CParnell]

25 years ago my grandparents gave me this truck. Even at a young age I loved fixing things and they must have figured this was a good outlet for it. She has some good war wounds, but she worked hard as a farm truck. Life got in the way and even though I always found time to go and visit my grandparents and the truck I didn't have the means to do anything with it. Well some time has past and I finally have the time/money to make this dream finally come true. This isn't going to be a fast build but I hope you will enjoy it. Plans are to keep the six if it isn't cracked and add a procharger and some other fun bits. For now enjoy the pictures.

That's me in the back of the truck with my brother in tow about the time I got the truck.


And on the trip home from the farm.




And the progress today. Also it is almost exactly 25 years to the day that I got the truck.







I'm keeping the end of the box for a shop seat like I have seen on here.
