Ole Blue became the White Horse
5 Attachment(s)
I bought this 72 GMC a few years back with the intent of just fixing a few things and putting it back on the road. Well, that turned into a near full reset and rebuild of the old truck. The once named Blue Beard has turned into the White Horse. Back on the Road....
Start was Sept 2019, Got it home, Engine was KNOCKING like mad woodpecker... Here is the pic thread from over the last few years. Smitty |

These are not 72 doors, but they are original metal and will do the job.

Tailgate was my most favorite part. Did the inlay around the GMC letters and it turned out nice. Had the bumpers powder coated.
