Re: New truck

some of the bad:





also some rust in the cab corners and a mostly dead instrument cluster.
shocks are completely gone,tires are different brands.

The good- new brakes all around, blinkers and lights had just been rewired(as in- they work- I'll have to check what was done) the motor seems fresh, no leaks,great power when I drove it, tranny shifts smooth, dash and steering wheel are in good shape.

Plans are to rattle can it black for now,find some trim and cab sails, moon discs, and maybe chop a coil out of the front springs, and see where I decide to go from there, I kind of want a "60's dry lake push truck" feel.

any words of wisdom on the 305(I'll be keeping it in the truck) would be appreciated- I know not to rev the hell out of it.- I'm already on 6066 GMC guys yahoo list.

Thanks for checking this out- any hoots, jeers or hollers are welcome.
