1995 GMC Crew Cab Topkick Conversion
5 Attachment(s)
Greetings All,
In the past I built an 1981 Chevrolet C50 Pick Up. Over the past years I have been doing a newer version to haul my our family from Kart Track to Kart Track. Thought I would share the build. The truck started as a mid 90's GM Medium Duty Truck. It is powered by a 3116 CAT into a Eaton Six Speed and then to a Spicer Two Speed Rear. Truck is fun but still work to be done.... |

Our Driver with a tire, some more sanding and along the way I decided to have all holes filled in the rear of the frame.
BTW I use Rustoleum on the metal. |
