Awesome truck, love the way it looks!

Can't say much for the tubes, best bet will either be searching the inter-webs or a local truck tire place.

Re: Project Viking

It's a beast I feel like you could pull set a tandem trailers with it
I'm so torn, originally I bought the truck to put a mechanical 12 valve in it for diesel nationals but I'm having a hard time moving on from the 305 V6.

The GMC V-6 Engine is a Classic.
