Progress pics 68' GMC 4x4

Just giving this a shot. Been unsuccessful in the past. If this works, here are a couple pics of my 68' 4x4 3/4. These photos are a few months old.

Did you do a shackle flip for the rear lift?

WOW looks great my 69 gmc in the exact same color and with a 6" lift. I wish mine was that far done though.

That second GMC looks pretty dang clean (the 2 wheel drive one). It's amazing how sedate a set of stock poverty caps and boring paint will make a short bed seem huh?
What other plans you have on that GMC? Going mild or wild on it?

longhornmail,

I don't really know what I want to do with the 70' yet. My first thought was a street rod. Now I'm pondering the thought of placing it on a 4x4 chasis. Ask me tomorrow and I might have another thought. Tough decision.

It is a clean truck. Bought it from a board member who happened to live over the hill from me.....talking about convenient. It only has one bad rocker, and two small rust areas on the doors. Otherwise, it is a real clean truck. Has a 6cyl, 3 spd currently. Was yellow, and may go back there.......



Thanks for the compliments guys!

Your 4x4 looks good. The 2wd looks pretty clean.
