New from Las Cruces, NM - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

85_GMC_Man · 11-02-2009, 05:55 AM

Hello everyone, new to the site and new to forums. A little bit about my truck. It's a 1985 GMC 1/2 ton with a 305. Bought it from my cousin in August of '06 for $1300. Here's a pic from then...

... I have made a few modifications and learned some interesting stuff about the truck along the way. This is the most recent pic of the truck as it sits now....

A little bit about my self. I am from Las Cruces, NM born and raised. I have like the square body chevy's and GMC's since I was young and now at almost 30 I own one of my own. I am also a big corvette fan, and am the proud owner of a 75 corvette in the beginning stages of a complete rebuild. So for now the GMC has to wait its turn for a full rebuild but I already have many plans for it. I will definately keep updates when I make changes as soon as I get a chance to start my build thread. Any questions or comments are always welcome. Hope to learn a lot here and make many new friends along the way.
