Re: Sullii the 72 GMC 1500
This happens to be a very low optioned truck as is evidenced on the SPID. It did come with the amp/oil/temp gauge dash which is nice. Other than that, manual everything. After inspecting the brakes, they are in serious need of a refresh and will be receiving a power upgrade as well.
The engine is supposedly a 307, but I need to verify this. It does run, but it also smokes a good bit on fire up. I plan to go through the engine bay to rebuild and retune everything that has been neglected over the years. The plan is to keep the drivetrain stock and in proper running order for now.
The frame and underneath is relatively clean and rust free, and this GMC came equipped with the truck arm rear suspension. The plan here, as with the drivetrain, is to clean this up and maintain it in stock form until I am ready to do suspension upgrades.
