Montana truck needs restoring

My name is Lee and I am new the forums here. Here is what I got: 1971 GMC 2wd that my dad bought new in 1971. Currently the truck is in my garage with a bad tranny, the front clip is off and the interior is out. I started working on the truck and have since changed jobs which gives me money but no time. Here is what I want: A shop to get my baby back on the road and looking good for around 10-20K this summer. Anyone from around the area know of a good place to get this done? I live in eastern Montana right on the North Dakota border. Thanks for any help given, Lee

Re: Montana truck needs restoring

I can't help with the truck my shop is overfull now[not to mention about 1200-1500mi away] but I can say WELCOME!! from the eastrn part of Arkansas. There are a lot of people devoted to helping others out that have'nt learn what they have as of yet. I'm sure someone close to you can lead you in the right direction. What a great oppertunity to have your dad's truck he bought brand new. Awesome. we need to see some pics. Jim

Hello Lee, Welcome to the board!!
Thats really great you are able to get your dads truck!!
My shop currently has room for another spring/summer project. Unfortunately I am about a 20 hr drive west of you.
If you have any pictures feel free to post them (we like pictures)
