WHAT A DEAL!
 |
 |
 |
| We picked up this 1 ton long wheel base, 1972 GMC for a mere $75.00 - Junk Price. The sale was forced by an upset wife - tired of looking at "that piece of junk." not knowing its full potential. | ||
 |
 |
 |
| This project was started by marking the original cab, bed and front end locations, including height - before disassembling. First the front end sheet metal was pulled off, then the front end wiring , steering column and then removed the cab. It took a tractor to lift and drag off both the rusted cab and bed. They are extremely heavy! | ||
 |
 |
 |
| Time now for the new cab and fiberglass doors. NOTE: When opening the windows we left a little of the plug to help support the post - because this project was going with a one piece power window and no vent. | ||
 |
 |
 |
| Finally, It is time to hang what we were waiting for.....our extremely cool....'67 Pre-split Cowl Induction Tilt with Grill, Roll pan & Cowl area. Installation of this front end can fully customize your '67-'72 Chevy or GMC truck in just one afternoon! We installed the factory light bowls, lights and bezels. (NOTE: When installing this tilt font end the wiper pivot must be spaced down about 1/4" to clear the rear of the front ends hood.) | ||

Last but not least -
and the easiest yet - is the ALL FIBERGLASS 8' FLEETSIDE
BED. With the proper drill and bolts the bed can be secured in place inside
of an hour. After all this - with the reduced weight of the body -
the suspension needs to be lowered several inches. When completed this 1 ton pick up
will be sporting small block automatic with new wheels and tires. STRONG - STRAIGHT - LIGHT WEIGHT |
