Thanks for the welcome folks. Like the jokes about the cab. I figured that would be the hardest part to fix. A tree fell on the shed it was in some years ago. That proves how tough these trucks were built. That was a pretty big tree! I am going to try to fix that as best i can. I figure a 2x4 and a three pound hammer should make a good start.
I plan on taking as many pictures as possible and posting in that album. The link should remain good as long as Google doesn't decide to change something. I am going to lay out the body panels and take close ups so anyone who cares to can lay some wisdom on me about what can/should or can't/shouldn't be done with them. Right now I want to find a good service manual, preferably a GM shop manual for that year. What did people do before the internet? Go talk to people? LOL
