I was surfing the local Craigslist about a year ago and found this 72 GMC 3/4 ton 4x4 listed for $1500 and made arrangements to go see it. After arriving on the location and talking to the owner he explained that he was given the truck for a payment owed by the previous owner. The previous owner had passed away and the wife signed over the truck as payment. He stated the only reason he wanted it was for the 400 big block motor, he want to pull it for a hot rod he was building and then he was going to sell with out motor. He got the truck to his property and a friend offered him a 454 motor which he took and put truck up for sale.

I purchased the truck for $1100 with the intentions of fixing and then sale it. Here are a few pictures of what I am starting with.
