Frankenstein!
Have not posted a pic of the front for obvious reasons. Good news though I have fenders(inner/outer), Chevy grill and hood to correct my, shall I say abomination.

Adam, that's why I threw it together, because I wanted to drive it. Over 1500 miles like that, no inner fenders, 4 bolts holding the grill on, no front parking lights.
Now don't get me wrong the drivetrain is solid, as is the cab and bed.

i dont think she looks too bad Jim, really good for the cash you have in her, but i can see how you would want he to be all one color, (and, uh, street legal might help, too)
good luck with her David

Well I won't have to tell you,people make itr point to not stay in front of ya,right
 Give that an A+. I love it,the GMC grille is one of the things I like about it,the later model grilles from chevy just looked too blah to me.67-69 were ok,but the GMC grille is awesome Either way it's a great ride IMO.Good work

Circus Wagons
I love to see circus wagons rolling down the road. I know somebody saved another one from the bone yard/crusher/etc, even though the donors had to sacrifice some parts.

I got the fenders from Randy70C-10 he was going to use them on his stepside. No dents in the grill, it could use a good polishing though. I'll have a little body work to do on the cab(C30 dodnor) for my GMC, we will have to take lots of pics!

They haven't yet. The 16.5x9.75 rims have more backspacing, 5" I believe, and that keeps the tires tucked in while turning.
