What a beautiful truck... I love the plans for it, including the opportunity for it to find another home if necessary.

Beautiful truck!

Nice find ,wish I could find them like that .Did you see the 72 subarban in the Atlanta Craigslist ? I called on it ,he wants $1000 for it . It has bucket seats too .Im not going to buy it as I would rob parts off of it for my truck and it deserves to be saved.

Sorry guys...no one stepped up to "save it".....the ruining of the truck has begun....If it brings you any comfort though, the 6 banger is getting used in project 'Race Truck".

72freak · 02-24-2011, 07:50 AM

Shes running great! This weekends project is power brakes!

72freak · 02-26-2011, 05:24 PM

Power brakes went on without a hitch.....they work great! Sorry guys....I just cant stop ruining it!

**lolife99** · 02-26-2011, 05:41 PM

NICE GMC also!

71swb4x4 · 02-26-2011, 06:12 PM

Looking good!! Like the wheels too. I am a fan of the I-6's, but certainly have no problem with you putting the V8 in it. These trucks are great, you can do about anything to them and they still look great.

68GMCCustom · 02-27-2011, 12:06 AM

If you're ruining yours.......I must be destroying mine.

Leroy-B1 · 02-27-2011, 08:47 AM

whats the gmc? is it a parts truck?

eagleuh1 · 02-27-2011, 12:00 PM

I'd like to find a 68 in those colors to match my C20. Nice find though.

OrangeCrush1970 · 02-27-2011, 12:59 PM

The GMC parts truck is mine and Im ruining it with new cab corners at the moment. You can't tell by the pic but it's a long bed...get your noses out of the air! http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...=1#post4529712

Yep...the ruination will continue......I have chrome bumpers, a new correct grille, putting an Old Air system on it and painting it.
