[DarkFlounder]

For a few years, I had the itch to rejoin the ranks of classic truck owner. I had in mind the truck I was looking for (71-72 GMC, 4x4, longbed fleetside), I kept an eye on the local Craigslist ads until I found her. On Nov 8, 2014, she followed me home, and my wife let me keep her.

1972 GMC K2500 Longbed Fleetside. Lived a hard life hauling firewood. Body in desperate need of refurb or replacement. Mechanically sound (crate 350 with 20k miles, crate TH350 with 10k miles). PO replaced Dana60 Power-Lock rear end with Dana70 out of a 1ton.

Needs a LOT of work, but already a reliable daily driver.

This thread is to document what I've done and what I'll be doing.

Photos show truck on the day I brought her home.
