Rick's 1972 SWB GMC Truck build Thread

I posted some pictures of my truck frame on my blog today.

I appreciate everyone who has helped me out by answering my questions so far.

I have been working on my truck for about 3 years. I have already rebuilt the engine. The truck has been completely disassembled. The frame has been sand-blasted and painted as well as the steering and suspension components.

The frame is painted with POR-15. Most of the remaining components have been painted with Eastwood Chassis Black paint. I have been using a $10 detail paint gun from HF with the Eastwood paint with great success. Not a single paint run so far.

I am in the process of converting the truck from leaf spring to trailing arm suspension.

Enjoy the pictures!
