Although I / WE enjoy restoring everything I decided in order to manage my limited time to attend to less tedious efforts to purchase these a few months ago thanks for validating my decision 🤭 so if anyone wants bags and more bags of rusty nuts they can find their way to another address🤣

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck

so I decided to re plumb the iBooster with much nicer and gentler sweeping bends, and then go to EVCreate to see if I got the front and rear lines correct

any guesses if I got it right?

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck

decided to divorce the '71 grille from it's upper bracket

unbeknownst to most, the GMC grilles are all the same, what's different is just the upper brackets
