Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
The McMurtry Speirling mini Batmobile is very impressive. I don't watch racing much, Formula 1 is not exactly leading with technology are they. Your local round town runs are getting more better.

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
Pretty easy to make it happen. Attach ground from side marker to the rear turn element. How it is done in the 71-72 trucks on front markers. If you use led bulbs in the rear turn/brake location doing this mod, side markers will not light at all. Have seen led bulbs cause frustration for a few 71-72 owners.

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
I know my bed sides are beat to shiet (that's a project for next summer) but what do you all think, with the shiny dingleberries or without?

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
just showing that I do drive the truck daily, and love it beyond words, anyway a question for you all, and this is embarrassing cause I'm an IT Guy by day and a Forum Updater by night, yet I don't use technology for technologies sake, if you follow that logic, well my wife does this thing where she deposits paper checks into the bank on her phone and I just don't get that Wicket Witchcraft, do you do it also like that?

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
Love the build! If anyone gives me a paper check, I use my phone to do the deposit as well.

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
PSA: so I called up these guys off of Craigslist who call themselves Mobile Ding Performance & Paint. I'm sure you've all heard of 1 Day Paint & Body, well I thought their ad said 1/2 Day Paint, but it actual said they will get there in half a day, anyway they did a half donkey job, drank all my beer, and left, I went to leave them a bad review on Yelp but they must have taken their webpage down, I knew the rollers were a red flag !

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
I just love this thread. If you're having a bad day all you need to do is read this thread each day its updated. You are either laughing your arse off or you realize someone is having a worse day than you. Thanks for the entertainment!!!!
