If I put 2/300 pounds of ballast in the bed, a block heater and 4 snow tires on it it would probably work for me. Does any one today drive a 67-72 all year around where the Winters are harsh.
I just had a 72 that looked the same shape as that gmc , original paint , little rust , 6 3spd. Did everything to it to make it my "winter c10" , the day I finished it , I realized I just couldn't drive it with the open rust with the crap they put on the roads in Ontario. You might get away with it out there , are they salting or putting calcium out there yet?
