Re: "Gerald" the 81 GMC.

I spent the last 2 months tinkering with this truck. I came up with a plan.
Phase 1, clean it and drive it.
Phase 2, lower it.
Phase 3, LS swap it.
Phase 4, body/paint/interior.

Phase 1 is complete. Lots of cleaning, and nickle & dime stuff... Did some hammer/dolly work on the radiator support and pulled it out. Swapped out the fender and bumper, and new trim. Wow, this reproduction stuff leaves a lot to be desired. Not show quality, but, good enough for a driver.




I got it insured and driving. After a few trips around the neighborhood, I was going to take it to my "picture spot", for more photos... And the radiator sprung a leak. Sorry guys, no more pictures. It's back in the garage until I get a radiator.

Meanwhile, I need to finish up two other builds before getting to phase 3 and 4 on this truck. Or maybe sell it.
