77 GMC Royal Sierra

Well after 3 years my truck is almost done...I guess I can start a "build" tread now.

Basically, it was taken down to the bare frame, sandblasted, hit with 2 coats of POR-15 and 2 coats rustoleam. I completely rebuilt the engine, trans, rear-end, steering column, and gauges, stripped down a cab off an 83C10 bare, repaired and painted. Also rebuilt/cleaned/repaired every inch of wiring. Got front fenders at a swap meet, hood from my "junk yard". I did all welding and body work myself(all a first to me), and my father and I painted it in our garage. 1981 Corvette yellow btw.

I still need to spray the bed, and install a bunch of parts, but she runs and drives, and sounds awesome!

Heres some pics, along with links to a few older posts...
