Re: Project: GOOBER, 1971 GMC
Finally picked up a second set of doors so I could make some half doors, and they were even the same color.
All tacked together. ![]() Ground down. ![]() And done with the drivers door. ![]() ![]() I also modified the hinges so they slide on and off, like jeep doors, for quick changes and not having to readjust the doors to latch every time I switch them back to the full doors. ![]() I have the other door all welded up now I just need to grind it down and paint it and I'll be done with both of them. It really makes seeing out a lot better now. Didn't realize how small the window were until now! |

Oh! Light BAR. I only saw the head lights standing on the hood during the jam session. My bad.

Re: Project: GOOBER, 1971 GMC
Been pretty busy with life. We did make it to the Big Meat Run. It was a good time. Didn't have any problems. Only got a few pics. Then We made a few local runs and I've been using it on the farm cleaning up the fields from a flood we had. Then I had to get ready for harvest and help my buddy get his rig ready for Top Truck Challenge 2014 that we went to in California in June. I was his copilot. And We brought the trophy home! Then I had a son on September 30. That had been keeping us from going wheeling much this fall. But I heading out for a day run this Saturday. Hopefully I'll get some more pics.

Re: Project: GOOBER, 1971 GMC
I'm also in the early process of building me a family rig. That way I can carry 2 car seats, wife, and if they want to go, 2 15 year old boys. With front and rear AC and leather heated seats. 4 wheel steer on Axletech 4000 axles from a military MRAP truck. I'll be running the stock 5.3 v8 with a 4l60E, backed by a NP203-205 double transfer case setup.

Re: Project: GOOBER, 1971 GMC
This wouldn't happen to be "Feedtruck" that won on last night's Truck Night in America show is it? I was watching and thought to myself "I know that truck". Took me a while to dig out this build thread. If so, congratulations!
