very nice. the black on bronze really looks sharp. what are the plans?

Re: My latest edition 72 GMC
 

5 lug 16" wheels would be pretty rare I would think.

Re: My latest edition 72 GMC
 

Looks like 6 lug to me?

Re: My latest edition 72 GMC
 

Where'd you find that baby Jeff? Looks pretty damn good for a West Virginia truck!
I'm headed your way here in a couple weeks if it's alright I'd love to come see your k/30 builds.

Re: My latest edition 72 GMC
 

Thanks Plans are to take it to Carlisle all trucks next week and try to sell it if not I'll keep it and put a 68 Chevy grill on it

Re: My latest edition 72 GMC
 

That's what I thought I have never seen 16" 5 lug wheels before

Re: My latest edition 72 GMC
 

You have good eyes to see thru those hub caps but they let you down because there's only five lug nuts


And Tyler yes you can stop buy anytime your always welcome here looking forward to your visit

Re: My latest edition 72 GMC
 

Larry I'll be there Thursday afternoon looking forward to meeting you as well

Re: My latest edition 72 GMC
 

That's funny and thanks Jeff

Re: My latest edition 72 GMC
 

What's the price on this beauty? Interesting there's no transmission option on the spid

Re: My latest edition 72 GMC
 

I'm going to ask $4000.00 at Carlisle

Re: My latest edition 72 GMC
 

Good eye. I didn't pick up on that. I was impressed that the truck had a real specific selection of options like it was ordered by someone who knew what they wanted and what they didn't...and not at the fancy end. It's simple on trim, more comfortable seat, 4spd trans/leaf spring/16" wheels for a work horse 1/2t, and most interesting... tilt wheel yet no power steering. If it was customer ordered it was likely an older feller who was just fine with the way trucks had always been built, didn't need all that fancy new stuff, didn't want to spend a whole lot on too many options (I'm surprised no HD radiator). I'm also surprised such an order didn't include good mirrors.

The 16 inch wheels may have come off a military spec truck.

Re: My latest edition 72 GMC
 

Chevy grill?!?! GMC Baby GMC! :gmc2:

Re: My latest edition 72 GMC
 

Jeff,
Please reconsider the grill swap ! GMC's need to be conserved....:gmc2:

Re: My latest edition 72 GMC
 

I have good interest in the gmc parts if you decide to swap it.

Re: My latest edition 72 GMC
 

Oh yeah, the 7.50 x 16 tires aren't on the SPID, either. Those could have been installed anytime, but I'm sure the truck came with a 4spd. The 16s fit in the rest of option choices.

Do the fender badges on this base trim GMC (Custom) have "V-Eight" on them? We have a thread on this going on

GMC front looks so much better than '68 Chevy

See?

Re: My latest edition 72 GMC
 

Tyler if it comes home after Carlisle it will get a 68 Chevy front and you can have first dibs on gmc parts if interested thanks
