67-72 wish list

[wwotr]

Below is a link to the Index Page of my Site for my 72 GMC.
I also have a "Mods Page" there also.
Nothing too Radicle, but its more of a Before & After Mods type of thing.

What I thought might be interesting for him to see is what cool things that others here have done to their trucks and we can build off of that. He loves these trucks, he loves them from stock to hot rods to fully showed out.

What we would like to see is some links from the board of specific mods and such. From mild to wild, we will take it from there!

For example, I just saw this and I dig it:

Lets see what you got!

Oh yeah I (and Corey) thank you!

Jerry, My son and I started this truck when he was 14. I bought it on ebay for a few hundred bucks and I told him we would just slap a sbc in it and roll it. He started asking questions and the next thing I knew the cab was upside down on my forklift.
We changed to 5 lug disc brakes, sbc with 700R4, vintage air, Tilt/ Tach/ Factory am/fm radio, 2 1/2 drop spindles, 5" lower spring in the back, Blazer gas tank, etc.
I suppose we had every dang bolt off of it at one time or another.
I tried to use his input as much as possible, but I overruled the step bed and I went with the Orig Torq-Thrust against his better judgment. Since he hadn't seen any installed, he just didn't know how coooolll they are!! He loves 'em now, tho
Turns out that he has a much better eye for bodywork than his old man, which isn't saying a hell of a lot.
He drives my 03 Duramax to school now, but as a motivator, IF he gets his Eagle Scout award this summer, the 67 will be his daily driver next year. Crings me to think of it in the high school parking lot, but I made the deal
Here is a pic of the truck and another at the first show. He entered it and I just got out of the way. So much fun! He was stoked when they called his name to pick up the trophy, that moment alone was worth all the work!

Soor Big Kahuna.
The Softeware that I use, came from the Developer that way.
I have no control over it.
The reason I use it, is because you don't need to know HTML.
Just type/Insert your pictures and upload it.

My refrence was meant as some people have 3 or 4 different Browsers on their Computers, (I.E./Firefox/Mozilla/Netscape ect)
