Another member from MD - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

1966gmc · 09-08-2007, 01:37 PM

My name is John and I live on the eastern shore of MD.I just recently purchased a 1966 GMC 1000 with a v8 swap.After finally tracking down the suffix code URP,I discovered that the engine is a 350 block that has 305 heads on it.It has a 3 on the tree but will soon be converted to a automatic.It is orange and white in color and has matching interior colors.I purchased this beauty for a mere 2500 bucks from the Auto dealership I work for.
Sorry I don't have many pics yet due to time restraints but here is a starter pic for you guys.

to the board from Iowa. Thats a nice looking truck you have.

1966gmc · 09-08-2007, 02:14 PM

Thanks.It's not in too bad of shape.The first thing I did when I got it home was swapped the quadra-junk out for a 600 cfm edelbrock.Also put on chrome valve covers and a edelbrock air cleaner on it.Now I need to get off my tookus and put Edelbrock Performer EPS intake on and the new set of headers I bought last night.

this shell station was( if memory serves correct) near the wal mart and they filled the subs to the brim with meat and the owner used to also sell the gas station toy trucks and had quite a collection in the dining room.
the people i knew on oakley street got divorced and he moved down rte 16 somewhere and she moved to Trappe I havent been down there in a couple of years and I havent really been down there for any length of time since the late nineties

Ok,that was the Shell station on the corner of Woods Rd and Rt 50.Yup,thats gone.There is a Royal Farms gas station there now.We also have like 10 new housing developments,a bunch of pharmacies, and tons of vacant buildings lol.If you haven't been here in a while,you won't recognize the place.
