Re: Dad's 1979 GMC Heavy Half Transformation

Shifted some things around the garage and brought in the Dad's frame from the barn. Going to weld the LWB to SWB kit tonight and hopefully get it cleaned so that I can paint it this weekend. Plan is to then, as mentioned before, transition everything over to Dad's frame from which it came from originally. The cab in the picture is the 85 I picked up in November that will one day go one on the frame to the left, that's for another build thread.

Also ordered some SWB step-side wood bed strips to see how they'd work out on the floor I'm working on. Six came in the pack. kind of relieved that all the holes lined up and they'll work just fine. Nothing fancy, just steel strips and bolts that'll end up being the color of the truck.

Thanks Mike
