Project Gumby Phase 1

Bought my first K5 on Valentines Day this year. Here's the its introduction thread http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=757258. Details: 72 K5 350/350, 4x4, P/S, white top, heavy duty radiator, posi, base model i believe. Pretty much original from what I can tell, everything there but the back seat and well half the top. Drove it up on the trailer despite a seriously rusted out gas tank.

This will document my "Phase 1" build. First step is a new 87-91 K5 gas tank so i can drive it more than 15 yards without worries of it dying. Plans are to get it road worthy and reliable enough for me to enjoy it around the house and occasionally drive it to work. Body bushings while the tanks out, install 00-06 seats front and rear, remove the homemade half top, install a soft top, maybe attempt some rust repair. We shall see...
