Can't wait to see a buildup of one of these with an LS well tied into the factory systems. Look forward to seeing it next weekend!

Flawless truck! These are my 2nd favorite body styles, which is why I bought back my 98. I'm in for updates!

Re: "Black Betty" 1995 GMC Reg. Cab Sport Side

Thanks guys! Not sure about flawless, but it was a nice find. I'm getting really bored with the little 4.3L but man it's a dog. I can't wait for the swap. On the other hand I'm on my fourth tank of gas in two months, been driving around on the first 1/4 all week.

See you at the Nats Low Elco

It's hard to beat a 4.3L, they run great. Mine is getting wore out from the lack of care of pervious owner. My swap is going to happen sooner than later it looks like.

Any updates on this yet? Just curious if the LS swap has happened or not. Definitely digging the solid back glass and new tint. This truck should be epic with the new motor!

Re: "Black Betty" 1995 GMC Reg. Cab Sport Side

Sorry to disappoint gents, but Black Betty has sold. I had big plans for her until my '50 Chevy started coming together again. After getting the '50 cab back from the body shop I could see the finish line and needed funding and one less project in the way. Black Betty sacrificed herself so her older brother Popeye can come back to life. She is going to a good home in Joplin.
