Hey guys! So last week I went and purchased my 1972 GMC1500 2wd Longbox! I purchased it down in Montana from a one owner family. It is currently at the border storage in Sweetgrass MT until tomorrow when I am going to pick it up. The truck is fairly close to stock, and I plan to return it to stock as close as I can. I have minimal amounts of rust repair to do before I can drive it (out of province inspections are quite rigid here), as well as installing a new washer pump and possibly a new windshield
. But other than that I am excited! The truck has 118XXX original miles on it, judging from receipts I have and the detailed account I got from the owners. I have an aftermarket cruise control to remove, as well as a seat that needs a bit (I hope) of work. If you are looking for a build thread where lots is going to happen in a very short time, this is not it. I'll be updating as I go and asking questions (I'm not very experienced at all, especially mechanically), but other than that hope you enjoy a project that will stay a project! More pictures to come tomorrow when I bring it home.
