New Guy in Indiana
Hey all, Ive been lurking for awhile and if the weather stays nice here Im going to start the next stage of restoration on my 1967 GMC 1/2 ton shortbed. Will post pics soon, and will be asking alot of questions. Body is rust free, bed almost , want to drop it 5-6" or so and right now I want some wide whitewalls. Peace for now-

Re: New Guy in Indiana
welcome....nice truck, I would loose the exhaust tips and stop the pipes as they drop over the axle...
