Kel's '50 GMC 1/2 ton build
As suggested, starting a build thread. Bought it from a guy in Comanche , Texas. Was asking $1400 with clear title. After seeing several similar trucks that were in worse shape with no title, decided to buy sight unseen. 5 hour drive from Corpus Christi, the guy said next day he'd deliver for $200...I said have you left yet...
Truck shows up 9/24/17. I was still working o the '59 Apache, so didn't touch it for months. Truck was better than expected. Typical cab corner, floor pan repairs needed, but no replacing roof, door skins, fender patches like the '59. Even has the running boards intact, not rusted out or totally missing like most I had see. All the door/window hardware work, just a really solid find.
