IT RAN
BAD TIRES


I about Cried

I wish I would of come across it first



It smells like a old truck should Lol, Id like to drive it sometime before he converts it

He said if I find my pawpaws and its a Chevy now, I can use his Grille to convert it into a GMC again
Although I hope the new owner has trashed the fenders or grille

Re: Looking for my Grandfathers 1971 GMC SIERRA

Thanks man, it seems like this thread has gone Viral LOL

Re: Looking for my Grandfathers 1971 GMC SIERRA
 

When I find my Pawpaws 71 or get the 59 GMC

I WILL NEVER,EVER,EVER X10000 get a Wood BED Lol

Re: Looking for my Grandfathers 1971 GMC SIERRA
 

Well, you've got the vin. That is the biggest obstacle in finding a classic car. I didn't read through the whole thread but, it appears that you're confident it wasn't parted so it is likely in a garage being restored. It had a really cool patina, so if the right guy bought it, he may not touch the paint.

But, if you keep searching it'll turn up eventually. And hopefully he isn't converting it to a Chevy.

I haven't seen it down this way, but I'll keep an eye out

You need to sell off everything you own to get that '59 Apache, otherwise you will be posting this same thread in a few years in the 55-59 forum.

Re: Looking for my Grandfathers 1971 GMC SIERRA
 

Thanks man, I just hope its not a FULL Restore, and yea the 59 I would like to get
Haha I will take donations !!!

But with the 59 the people told me they would sell it to me, and possibly only me because they know I was the Original owners family

Re: Looking for my Grandfathers 1971 GMC SIERRA
 

The kid who bought it from us
Took off the mirrors
The Original Hood, scrapped it..Instead of putting new hinges on it
Put corvette wheels one it
Took off the molding
Took out the carpet

And had it running

THEN SOLD IT

I mean come on he basically Raped the thing




I just hope I can find it, Heck the Guy is older then me and I havent ever worked on a Truck, and Id know to out new hinges on it...Leave the Mirrors on it, they were the original ones.He had told me they were put on there...As for the Camper top it was hauled off as well

Re: Looking for my Grandfathers 1971 GMC SIERRA
 

Dude get the 59 gmc truck. That thing is tight.

Re: Looking for my Grandfathers 1971 GMC SIERRA
