another bagged 67
bought this 67 GMC 3/4 long bed about a year ago. been lurking around checking out different project, collecting ideas, finnlay decided to start my own build thread. here what I started with. just wanted to convert to 5 lug and lower it a little but after seeing so many other projects kept going lower and lower and stealling other guys ideas.
