Project: GOOBER, 1971 GMC

This all started when I was 16 and purchased a 1980 k30 for $500. Did everything on the cheap and welded up the axles and threw on some 38 claws that I got for $100.



I drove it like that for a few years adding a few things, like full hydro steering, cause I couldn't steer it with the front being welded. :shaking: Then I went to the river with some friends and he had a built jeep and I decided I wanted to build one. Being young and dum and in a hurry I just shortend the frame 40 inches and threw the jeep body on and bought some 38 inch boggers.



Proceeded to drive it and upgrade it as I went for several more years. But I always regreted using that frame after I was done.

This is what the jeep looked like in its last stage.

Then a couple of years ago I became friends with a guy driving an old chevy at Clayton and fell in love with his rig.
