Re: 1972 GMC C-?? 4x4 pickup with 71 series power

LOL i guess.... I seemed the right thing to do to keep the balance of the truck... I added 28" of box and I think I will leave it partitioned as I plan on locating the fuel tank, toolbox and batteries in the section behind the cab.... the engine/transmission choice along with the 4x4 drive line length kept me from shortening the frame...

Just finishing up the drive line and then the body and assembly starts...

The truck was an airport fire rescue unit with 18,000 miles on it,, the front wheels had never been off...
