Charity Case finds a new home

Man this was a tough one to see go. After much deliberation I have decided to let my old GMC go. My original plan was to convert it to a short box over the course of winter, but the truck really has a personality as a survivor long bed. The truck is so clean that it would almost be a crime to take that away with a short bed conversion. So it's off to a good home where it will be improved upon but will always stay a long bed. You guys all know the sting you feel when a truck you've put your heart and soul into (plus a little blood) rumble off into the sunset. On the bright side I'm now on the hunt for a clean shortbed. The pictures are of the new owner driving away with his new baby!

Re: Charity Case finds a new home

I normally don't like long beds but that truck looked spot on! I would have no problem at all owning that one!
