I haven't posted any pics of my truck lately, so I figured I'd just post a few for the fun of it.

I like the second pic.

ROCK ON, MAN!

Wow, my truck actually got a compliment from Dustin. I'll have to mark that one down.

The rear bumper is staying, thats what I pull 'Yota's around with.

CPNEJR · 03-28-2007, 07:57 PM

cory321 · 03-28-2007, 08:18 PM

Looks Good. Always nice to see the gmc's

70gmcjimmy · 03-28-2007, 08:27 PM

GREASEMONKEY72 · 03-29-2007, 03:40 PM

your truck is one of my favorite trucks on the board, just because of the face thats its a no BS truck, and i love the v6 to

68wip · 03-29-2007, 03:48 PM

Agreed, great looking truck!

Question though, isn't that a small block in the picture?
Or did I miss something? Highly probable...

CPNEJR · 03-29-2007, 03:55 PM

its a 305 V6 which was only available in the GMC

oh yeah!!!!!!!
these are possibly the best looking trucks ever made.

but then I may be biased.

JAKES 68GMC · 03-29-2007, 09:45 PM

Don't bother ask/hint if the V6 is for sale. Your not going to get it.

Ok,I won`t hint that I wanted to trade even up with this 383 That I just built.

bad_turbo · 03-29-2007, 11:53 PM

good looking truck

68GMCCustom · 03-30-2007, 12:51 AM

I've got the same 305 "big block" V6 in my '68. They are GM's closest thing to a gas powered diesel. Lots of torque, low rpm operating range, and great fuel economy. They actually made versions all the way up to something like 478 and even had a V12...where they made a special block and crank and then set 4 of the V6 heads and 2 intake manifolds on it.

They're the last of the light duty GMC "truck" engines.

KAILUAZ · 03-30-2007, 01:49 AM

GMC's rule! Nice ride.

They are a lot like a diesel. The 500 Holley 2bbl. really wakes them up, almost a night and day difference.
