My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck

THE ELECTRIC CONVERSION STARTS AROUND POST #176

"Hey man how much you want for that truck?" I asked Big Al

"You want it?" Al replied

"What year is it?"

"71"

[poker face on] "Sure what you want for it?"

"For you $1,500"

and that's how I added Dusty to the stable along with Rusty and later Busty

and then we moved to a new house and my computer crashed and I lost all these pictures till now, I just found them by accident four years later

so Dusty was a Poster Child for a Basket Case, no hood, no grill, no bed, no tailgate, no rear axle, no engine, no transmission, just a carcass (I didn't even know it was a GMC at the time, I thought it was a Chevy)

here are the first pics of it after I bolted up a rear end I found on Craigslist and Al told me about a bed he had in his back yard, so we put that on it, he also threw in a 350 SBC and a TH350 he had hiding in the garage, and then he gave me the hood, and maybe some more other parts
