Thanks! And I've seen a couple of your posts with that truck. I'd say do it up, I'd love to see another

extended cab!

hey way off topic but im just wondering if by any chance you still have the 61 gmc 4x4 frame and if you would consider selling it?

oklahomaduner · 02-23-2010, 01:03 AM

Yes, and yes. It looks like it was hit in the rear pass. side at some point...frame is diamond shaped a bit from the midpoint back, at least from what we quickly saw. The front/rear axles, transfer case/crossmember and cab forward look decent (oh yeah, no hood or grill!

). PM me if your interested.

oklahomaduner · 03-08-2010, 12:24 AM

Well we haven't gotten much work done lately but we are tossing ideas around on a rear bumper.. What do you guys think?

**Captainfab** · 03-08-2010, 01:52 AM

I like it better right side up as in the first pic.

How is the work on the cab coming?

jonzcustomshop · 03-08-2010, 10:06 AM

I'm going opposite the cap

I assume that is your front and is just a mockup, I would do it upside down, narrow it a little to fit the fenders better, and put a l/p-trailer hitch notch on the bottom 1/2.

*highperf4x4* · 03-08-2010, 11:25 AM

I don't like it as much on the back as I did the front...........................

Can you punch some holes in a drop style bumper?

Big-Blue · 03-13-2010, 10:12 AM

Incredible! Thanks for taking the time to document it as you go.

I now feel very inadequate!

ApeKing · 03-15-2010, 12:52 PM

The first picture looks best.

Sooner84 · 03-17-2010, 01:18 AM

Awesome build man! I like the first pic best for the rear bumper..
I think we go to the same school

Things have been going slow... not much to do lately so I pulled her out and washed her for the first time. Didnt realize just how dirty it was...

jason65 · 03-17-2010, 07:52 AM

Looks tuff dude. Thats one sweet chassis.

*highperf4x4* · 03-17-2010, 07:34 PM

THAT'S A BEAST!!! YOU DON'T NEED ANYTHING ELSE

Just mount a seat to the transmission!

ruffrida2005 · 03-17-2010, 09:16 PM

matdean · 04-27-2010, 09:34 AM

Cool build, just found it as well. Wish I could have had a project when I wsa coming through school and still at home. I tried and tired but it never panned out. Great skills and detail, all it takes is time and $. I was glad to see that you will shop around to get a deal on parts and wait months to buy them, I do the same thing, just at a slower rate.
