Beatuiful truck and within spitting distance from my home. Now that I'm older and (hopefully) wiser, I'm at the age where a truck of that vintage and solid condition should be left stock. And that's my two cents worth.

Bottom line, do what YOU want and have fun with it.

I came up with another idea for some 22 rally wheels in the front and some 24 inch rally wheels out back and of course the wheels will be painted the correct color so the wheels match the body. I also got the badges in for my 2011 CCSB with the 6.2 and for the 1977 GMC that is getting a 6.2. :twisted:

The motor and transmission will be ordered the week after new years I am thinking.

.

Do they make these wheels in 20"? I've been looking at wheels and it appears they don't make these any bigger than 17". Nice truck BTW! I actually like the color combo, but not digging the body colored rallys.

Yes they do according to an American Racing wheel rep.

Re: One SEXY 34 year old!
 
Well, I have a BIG PROBLEM! I am A.D.D big time when I picked up this truck I was so ready to go nuts on it but that soon fizzed out. I did not want to go on with my plans but that is not the first time that has happened to me. In my 15 years of having a drivers license I have owned, swapped, traded, bought, sold and tore up more cars and trucks then the law allows. So Friday I swapped this truck for another 1977 Chevy C30 that I plan on slamming and putting some 22.5 semi wheels on. Anywhoooo! Maybe one day this thread with stop being a waist of space and a bunch of chit chat and turn in to a build thread of some sort... Maybe. :D. I loaded the 1/2 ton up on my car hauler and I will be heading to Dallas to pick up the C30 that I traded for. Along the way I have got to pick up the 22.5 and I hope to find a cab and chassis rear axle so when I do the 6 inch static drop on the rear the tires will not hit the rear fenders. I also have to pick up the lowering kit and hope to pick up the 12v Cummis that I bought a while back. I think swapping a 12v Cummis in this thing would be sweet and then back it with a NV4500 trans! Anyway here is a few pictures for those that like pictures.

The 77 C10 loaded up and getting ready to go to it's new home in Dallas,Tx

Here is the 1977 C30...

This is a truck that a local guy put together, IMO it is just sick but that is me. I will be doing something like this...

Love to see photos of these on a square.
