Re: 1972 GMC C-?? 4x4 pickup with 71 series power

Wow, it looks like we have similar taste in trucks! Mine is not 4 wheel drive, I've considered throwing some Rockwells under it and making it 4wd but I want to keep the two speed rear end. Mine still has the original 327 in it, I'll probably end up with a Cummins in it due to availability and price. Here is a picture of mine taken early July 2012.

coming along nicely. That should have more power than you'll ever need.

Man I'm glad to see this thread go active again! I haven't done anything with mine except drive around the ranch in it. Maybe your progress will be motivation enough to kick start me.
