I am forming the plan in my head.I am using the flat deck, static drop and of course a unique diesel motor. It will be built to be driven.

Re: My 52 GMC Build

Changing out the crappy foam cowl vent seal for a hopefully better rubber one from "Steele".
Also giving the truck a check up before heading to the AD National show that is on Sept 21. I hope to see some of you there. 17,000 mi and counting.

Re: My 52 GMC Build

Trip one went great zero problems there and back. 1200mi. My son and I had a great time at the AD National show over 40 trucks showed up, so many nice people. Friday before the show we did a cruse 20 min north to a car museum then went go carting. I finally shook this guys hand after all these years punching a key board. Great to finally meet you Rob.

Hey Lowers,
I like the visor on your truck. Do you know who the manufacture is? I'm trying to find one for sale.

Thank you Lowers,
Here is my 6500 (large front clip) 4x4 with an Onan six cylinder. I think these truck look a lot better with a visor.

That's nice upside down pictures. No wonder I never get that much work done. Loading the fire wood in an upside down trailer.

Re: My 52 GMC Build

Well our big fall trip is done. We where 2 weeks early this year due to my holiday schedule. So we decided to go tour the East coast of Canada. Heather and I with our 2 dogs had 2 weeks and traveled 4 provinces and 4 states. We spent time in New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia. Passed through Quebec, Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts and New York state. We had a great time, spent 10 nights either a few feet from the ocean or easy view of the ocean. Got home with 5120km or 3200mi, no problems at all with truck or trailer.
