UPDATE!!

I am the happy new owner of this beast! This was actually my brothers truck which I helped with since the project began, with a new kid on the way I had to sell of several other projects (71 2wd burb, 58 fleet panel truck 4x conversion, 64 VW) and instead of buying a minivan I got the OK from the wife to make this my man wagon.

Over the years we seem to sell our rides back and forth to each other to keep them in the family so a deal was made for the Whale and the Jimmy. The GMC has 5/4 CUCV axles with 4.56s, Detroit and tru trak which will probably make their way under Moby at some point.

A TC 2.5 kit will be added in the next few weeks so I will post some pics.

I wish I could mount the Weld rims with 38.5 swampers I was going to use on the panel and a bigger lift but loading the kid and groceries would be a bit much for this soon to be SAHD. Guess Im getting old being all practical and s#it!
