Heres my latest driveway filler.. 80 GMC 4x4, 350/350/205. Traded it for a washer and dryer. Needs some work since it was a Florida truck, so I have a bit of rust repair to do. Everything works, AC, power windows/locks. I need to get rid of that bed, though.. I bet it weighs every bit of 800lbs!

I'm thinking 2 or 3" lift, a set of 33s, freshen up the interior, a good thorough tune and get rid of that bed.. I bet I could get enough money from scrapping it to get a good used stock bed for it!

Yeah, I'm thinking I'll keep the rear bumper, make it air tight, weld in some air fittings and use it for an air tank.. any suggestions?
