Thanks for everyone's interest in my project.....I'll have more pictures to post as I expect to be devoting more of my time to the build now.... I managed to mate the bed to the rest of the truck today...I plan on painting the inside of the bed at a later time.....Plans are to paint the tailgate and hood next.....the wheels on the truck are just temporary

Re: 1973 Gmc Cab Rebuild
It looks awesome! You need some 16.5x9.75 steelies on it with stock caps!
Edit: It looks like it wad some on it at one time. Also is that a 2 1/2" lift? |
Re: 1973 Gmc Cab Rebuild
Thanks.....haven't made a decision on the rims yet...definitely going with 10" wide though.....lift is a 3" Tuff Country, springs, no blocks.
|
Re: 1973 Gmc Cab Rebuild
Or you could go with some Wheel Vintiques 16" x 10"s if you don't want to deal with finding 16.5 tires. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...&postcount=133

oops. It said it didn't post, "server too busy".

Re: 1973 Gmc Cab Rebuild
Great link for the steelies...I know that I don't want 16.5s because of limited tire selection...16's would work though...if I decide to go this direction I'll have to keep my eyes open for stock caps.

Re: 1973 Gmc Cab Rebuild
Definitely a cool set up....I wish I still had my stock caps.

Working on purchasing parts for the engine. After the island gets back to normal from the hurricane. I'll be back into the project again.
A quick shot of the beginnings of my carb set up, carbs will be rebuilt as soon as I receive the final carb. UPS service is a little jambed up here. |

Before and after pics of the radiator support that I had to rebuild.
I planned on using the new repro shown, but thanks to goodmark's lack of quality, I had to scavenge the bottom section from the new one to fix the old. The mounting holes were close to 1 inch off on the goodmark piece!! |
Re: 1973 Gmc Cab Rebuild
