Re: GMC V-12 powered '91 Chev crewcab

I really like the looks of that goofy looking thing. We set out to do something different, and that sure makes a good canidate for consideration. If the frame was a little longer with a longer bed so the cab would set about half way between the axles, it might look a little more balanced. The bed I have is 9' long.

I just now noticed you had stretched the front of the old pickup I have. I'm thinking I like to paint it back to the color it was when new.
I feel pretty confident I can do all the work at home except the sheetmetal to stretch the hood and fenders. I've never done much body work. I do have another pickup just like this one, so have two of everything.

The idea of burying the motor in the bed keeps nagging at me too.

Found a Dr., got some pills, so right now, I don't give a flip whether it hurts or not. No driving tho, so son is leaving Okla. tonight with the wifes Expedition for us to go home in and he'll take the truck and trailer. I'll think about trying to find the cause of this after we get back to our familiar turf.
