Re: My 54 GMC Build

Thanks.
I am debating changing the wheels to steel with caps.
The tool box covers the top of the tank. So if I need to change the pump I don't have to drop the tank. Love these trucks

Re: My 54 GMC Build

18 for the one tank I ran it. Probably could have got 22 if I wasn't flooring it everywhere

Re: My 54 GMC Build

I should have kept this truck. It sold again. I missed it on ebay in January. Love to see some pics of it out there somewhere

Re: My 54 GMC Build

you should build another one or buy one that is as close to "built like you want" and change a few things to get it like you want it. it seems, since there are no replies to your querry, that your old truck is under wraps somewhere.
