"Gerald" the 81 GMC.

[BIGglaSS]

Hi guys, I think I have a truck addiction problem. Is this the right support group? I did not need another project, nor do I have room for another truck. But, I couldn't resist, and brought another one home. (I have 2 other project cars to finish, plus I'm helping my dad finish his.) But, at least this one runs and drives. My daughter named it Gerald, and it stuck.

Overall, it is a fairly solid truck. The cab and bed are decent with only a few rust holes to repair. It has an older single stage metallic repaint that is in poor condition. I spent a few days of cleaning, and installed a new water pump. It still needs a little bit of work to be a driver.

I'm not sure what all I'm going to do with this one, or how far I will take it. For now, I just want a driver to tinker with while I focus on finishing my 57 pickup.

The current plan, get it clean and running/driving safely. Fix the fender / grill damage. Lower it. Restore the interior. If I decide to take it further, Paint/body and LS swap.
