new project truck and a awesome junkyard find that I might just haver to buy - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

well here's my new project a 80 something GMC 3/4 ton shortbox 4x4 that I got for free nit the previous owner did the Hillbilly Stomp on the cab, it had perfect glass in it a week prior when I went to look at it

here is the donor for the body pannels for my 83 it was a outlaw pulling truck, the body is all steel, rust free and strait, the only issue is that ie was all skinned onto a 1 1/4" sq tube fraim in order to open like a funny car but it will be good skins for only $200

abd here's what I found at a junkyard that I might have to buy, it's a 76 chevy cab and tandom dule rear drive axels, it ought to make a interesting tow rig if I do buy it
