the green GMC is my Dads, the black Chevy is mine.
MY truck is in need of restoration big time! Im going to keep it mainly original. I'm not going to try and go all out original since it already has a 261 in it, and it need a new radiator so i bought an aluminum one, but wheels, tires, brakes and general appearance im going to stay orignal, just mainly cleaning it up, repainting and replacing worn out parts.
I got it running a couple days ago after putting a new water pump and carb rebuild and points, plugs, etc. But when i tried to bleed the brakes i could only get fluid out of 1 bleed screw on the front wheel, no big deal though. once i get the engine running well i'll tear the truck apart, clean up engine and tranny and repaint, probably put a new clutch in it since its apart, then blast and repaint the frame and get brakes working, then start body work and painting and reassembling.
i'm trying to take my time and not be making trips to the store everyday for parts and tools but its hard not to!
I hope with everyones help (with info!) to get this thing cleaned up and running down the road soon!
