Re: '70 GMC SWB Money Hole
Well, I got "Walt" today and after talking with the wife... I'm keeping Booger too. I'll be turning Booger into a '67 gmc with all the extra parts I have. I'll be fixing the few rusty spots on the cab, bolting up all the new fenders, core support, hood, grill, bedsides, doors, etc and squirting some paint. I'll be rewiring it too... I have an extra painless harness for Booger.

Re: '70 GMC SWB Money Hole
I did go ahead and buy a set of 15x8" Eagle 111's with grey centers to go on here. I'm hoping the heat here will subside soon so I can get these trucks back on the front burner. 3 project trucks plus the '74 Bronco are a lot of projects for 1 guy

Re: '70 GMC SWB Money Hole
Well, I bought a new set of wheels that are a bit more than I'd planned.

Re: '70 GMC SWB Money Hole
Thanks Keith. I debated on selling it, but damn it... I want a LOW GMC. This should do it.

Re: '70 GMC SWB Money Hole
Pallet of PB goodies headed my way via Fastenal, including a set of frame rails (there wrapped up separately off to the side)

Re: '70 GMC SWB Money Hole
You have a good wife there son!!!!! There is no way in hell my wife would let me keep two trucks at once!!! She just bought me a shop sign for Christmas that says" what happens in the garage stays in the garage". I guess that is a big hint to remove all of the truck parts I have stored in our finished basement. Do you think I am going to keep a set of factory bucket seats and factory brackets, in my garage?? I keep all of the good stuff out of public view. If it's seen, there is a good chance she will be after me to sell it!!!! I have an dealer replacement 402 BBC out of a 69-70 Vette that I have stashed under my workbench that no one knows about except my Dad

HAHA...........she saw a picture of them the day I brought them home. I guess she tacitly approves of them (as long as they are not in the house). I will keep my eye on for you if you are in need of a set. I run into them about very two months or so. I found an almost perfect set out of a 72' K5 about (2) months ago for $200. Missed out on them due to some bills that needed to be paid......

Re: '70 GMC SWB Money Hole
Just running across this thread. I, too, have a shortbed gmc and am totally digging your plans. Love the racelines too.
