Grandpas 71 GMC

[dme922]

Hey guys I guess i am going to go ahead and start a build thread on this truck that i started on three years ago. I inherited this 71 GMC longbed from my grandpa a year after he passed away and decided to restore it instead of buying a new truck. My grandpa bought it brand new and put a camper in the bed and him and grandma use it for vacations. He had it repainted back in the 90's but the guy didn't do a very good job and it still had a lot of rust and holes in the cab floors. Thats a little history of the truck. Here is a pic of my dad with the truck just before i decided to tear into it for the restoration.
