One More Time...

I'm bacccckkkkk!

After I got rid of the dream, (http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=257530) I have been really wanting to go with a Chevy (GMC) truck that was a lot older...

I tried rebuilding a 1954 Chevrolet 1-ton but in the end it wasn't what I really wanted. It was a single wheel rear axle long bed without a 5 window cab and had vent windows... yuck! I started rebuilding it but sold it to a friend who was looking for a mid 50's truck to do a chop top on.

So I just acquired a 1948 GMC 1 1/2 ton dually flat bed but it has more of the things I was looking for.

It has a 5 window cab and no vent windows... It also is a dually which I can live with being a big truck. Here are some before photos. I will post more as I tear into this beast and decide where to go with it. It's very complete and it runs...
