Re: 1979 3+3 GMC Dually

I haven’t been on here in a while so I have some updates.
I finished this truck and it was awesome.
Then my garage burnt down and took the truck with it. Not awesome.
So today I bought another crew cab dually. Here are pics:

Oh man!! That sucks in a big way. I hope the new one runs & has 'as good' of bones as the one you lost.

Same game plan or making changes?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Condition wise its actually nicer, but I do prefer the two tone and round headlights. I just couldnt pass up on this white one.

Pretty much the same plan...Im going to see if I can save the 22" alcoas. Same drop. My plan was to 6.0/4l80e but this 454 runs so good I'm having second thoughts. It does need some sort of overdrive though.

I'm going to see if the Gearvendors OD from the brown truck can be saved.
