Re: 1972 GMC 2500 6.2 Diesel

I wonder why the PO sold it??? Man, it has some things about it that are home made, but do work!!!
I like it!!!
I don't care for the wheels, but would likely leave them on, if tires are usable...not that big of a deal to me...

I love the truck, I am driving it everywhere. I looked under the dash expecting to see a rats nest of wires and just found... really clean color coded wires with proper connectors. I am pretty impressed. A lot of this diesel conversion is very custom and I want to take my time understanding how they did it before I make any changes.

But: this week it is getting some attention mechanically, and I have a set of steelies that I hope to get powdercoated soon so those others can go... I kind of like them to be honest, but they just aren't me. I feel like I am going through a mid life crisis driving on them, haha. I figure I can get some good money for them and buy some new rubber though.

I am still hoping to make it my daily driver, more or less, during this winter. Need to do something about those cab corners though.
