Probably some of the body is '71 GMC that was placed on a '70 Chevy truck. Between the 6-lugs, grille, core support, and tailgate, I am seeing more '70 Chevy than '71 GMC.

One of the cleanest all original survivors I've seen came out of MN. I doubt it ever ran in the winter. Lots of lakes for fishing up there. Was just a go fishing rig. I've seen such trucks from all around the country where you's never expect a rust free truck.

Now this one isn't one of those, but it could have been for it's first life. It really doesn't look so awful. The eaten up trucks that TooMuch has hauled home have been 4wds, too. They ran regularly all winter from day one, and once they sit the rust worms really feed
