Cool 64 gmc

I know i don't post much(very slow at typing) i do read alot on this site though, and i do appreciate the input i have gotten. if you don't know already i am planning on a low budget build of putting my longtime friend(64 GMC cab) on my 84 4wd chassis. this will be a slow process as i have many other things going on, and i am notorious for starting projects and not finishing them.

here are some pics

Re: 64 gmc

As far as the swap, I can't be of much help. Good luck and post some pics as you go, that doesn't require much typing. My typing skills have improved greatly since being on this forum.

Re: 64 gmc

Looks like you've got some fabricating in your future. Keep us posted, and let me know if you have any questions on doing that swap. I've done one similar before.
