Progress, Stripped and painted Chassis
Well I spent the day working on my 72 3/4 ton 4X4 GMC to Chevy project. I finished stripping what was left of the body, cleaned and painted the chassis, and also mounted the rebuilt tranny, transfercase. Oh ya, also mounted the completely rebuilt front driveline. I should be getting the engine back from the rebuilders sometime this weak also. I will get it mounted this weak and hopefully start assembling the body.... I am going to have custom plates made for it that will read GRDN-TRK LOL WES www.ClassicHeartbeat.com
