Can't believe I pulled the trigger.... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Picked her up yesterday and I'm like a lil kid waking up on Xmas morning! My first classic. '71 GMC with only 800 miles since the frame off was done.

My first question and I did a bit of research, but what website does most order from? Specifically right now, a bench seat.

Mrturner1 · 12-12-2015, 01:05 PM

nice find. i just got my first a year ago, 70 c10 long bed. your gonna love it. early classic enterprises has parts. also check the vendor section, more parts than one could ever need

**nlped** · 12-12-2015, 01:07 PM

Good looking '67 4-eye.

The only place I've ever ordered any kind of seat related stuff (new) was TMI. Another option is place a WTB add here on the classifieds or good ole CL...

Welcome,nice gmc

Try GMC Pauls - not sure if he does seats or not, but he does have a lot of decent parts if you spend the time wading through his website...

XwalkerX · 12-12-2015, 10:13 PM

i actually live up in long beach and hit up the truck and car shop quite often...

Congrats! Nice Truck!
I would go junkyard hunting for any truck bench seat until I found one I wanted in my price range.

He says it's a '71.

BCOWANWHEELS · 12-12-2015, 10:56 PM

he sure did. I skimmed right past that. I was just looking at the lack of marker light... Hoods wrong now that I look.

Still a great looking truck for sure.

elf w/capital T · 12-13-2015, 09:07 AM

Junkyard for seat, imo then classicparts or any vendor here, pm them they can hook you upppp

**SoCoC10** · 12-13-2015, 09:23 AM

Enjoy your 4 eye. How about some more pics?

DogueParamour · 12-27-2015, 12:16 PM

Hey all! Sorry for the lag....my grandma passed away and had to put everything on hold.

I absolutely hate the interior. Everything from the steering wheel to the seats to the instrument cluster will be swapped out, but right now, in the state she's in, she's a blast to drive! She hauls ass and sounds vicious! So much so I'm junking the Flowmaster.

It's amazing how much info is on this forum and how much inspiration is floating around here.....It's jaw dropping! I love it!

Sorry for the quality of the pics...I haven't taken any of my own yet but it gives you an idea of what I'm working with.
