So as a few posts have started, I have been checking out build threads on this and other forums, researching as I tell the wife...... l learned whole bunch of good info to get me motivated to do my own build and thread.

A couple years ago I picked up an 87 shortbox 4x4 GMC as a project to fix up with my boy. I have rebuilt a half dozen of these trucks in my high school years and really enjoy working on them.

I will get some pictures posted after I hit the minimum. My original plan with this truck was to do the typical axle swap, big block, and auto trans, until I found a few guys throwing the Cummins into these trucks. I used to work on diesels, so I know a thing or two about them.
