Hi everyone, I just wanted to say hi as I have viewed some of the forums, but now that I'm starting on my truck I'll probably be on here more. My name is Colin and I'm from the Edmonton area in Alberta, Canada.
I've had my 46 GMC for almost 3 years now, and I'm just getting going on it and plan to be driving it later this summer. When I bought the truck, it had several parts removed much earlier in life and was sitting in the bush for years. The suspension, all drivetrain, and some of the interior pieces had been removed. That's fine for me, as I am making a rod out of it anyways.
It's a Canadian built long box truck, but I've been unable to find VIN decoding information for a Canadian GMC, so I'm not sure if it was a 3/4 ton or a heavy half. It also has a wooden box floor and a plain tailgate, I'm wondering if the Canadian GMC's were done this way as opposed to the steel bed floor and GMC stamped tailgate the GMC's were supposed to have?
I'm excited to get this truck on the road and have fun with it, as there aren't many GMC's around, and while I know of at least 2 guys building them in Edmonton, I haven't seen another one in person, only pictures.
