So, since it's all you, great work indeed!

thanks! i feel the same way about taking it as a compliment!
and eric i still have them, they are on my 82, i just liked the softer lip of the 338 and the spoke shape and pattern..plus, im not a fully polished kinda guy

Nothing real special... just figured I'd post up some updated pics of the ole GMC
This was purchased by my wifes grandfather back in 87. He used it to pull his 20 foot tag along camper for 20 years. It was always taken good care of and the interior is perfect. no rips or tears. all stock.
The body was faded, so I had the school where I work paint it. 350.00 ..... not bad.
I polished all of the chrome and put it back on. the only upgrade to the exterior was the billet grill. The rest is completly stock.
I planned on pulling my 27 foot camper with it, but decided after painting the truck to retire it and give it to my wifes dad for fathers day. He always wanted a truck... and it was HIS dads anyway.

Happy Father's Day to him....

and me......
Here is the New truck and camper......

That is cool I someday would like to build a 49 chevy for my dad he started on one when I was born in 81, then the army moved us to germany my sister was born 2 years later, by the time we made it back to the states I was 5 sister was 3 so dad had other priorities and ended up selling the truck. Kinda crazy now I've got kids and completely understand the sacrifices we make for our kids.

Those are the "sport" mirrors. They were more common on the earlier square bodies.

Also welcome to the boards from just down the road in Noble, OK. If you get a chance check out the Oklahoma section of the board.

I don't understand why so many people don't like the 81-82 front ends, they are my favorite from the 80's

They look like 2011 camaro rims to me. I was looking to getting some but you need adapters.
