Got another truck!

Just picked up another to add to the list....87 GMC High Sierra, payed $800.
The cab corners and rockers are solid, and the pass, floor, drv. floor needs tlc, both supports are perfect, bed floor is perfect, engine runs good w/60psi oil pressure, seems to shift nice, interior is in decent shape. No pics till tommarow..but heres a link to the add... http://www.bargainnews.com/viewad.cf...31&TheDealer=0
Im either gonna fix it, or use the cab and bed for my 77.What do u guys think i should do?

Re: Got another truck!

You could do liek the others mentioned and make a nice profit from it. I was thinking the same thing with the K-5 I picked up but now thinking I'm going to keep it as a 2nd truck.

Re: Got another truck!

I was told the rear springs are from a 1 ton...i got some taller front springs i may put in, add some bigger tires, fix the whole truck up and drive it for a couple years while I restore my 77...
