Hi Folks, Mark from central Michigan here. Currently buying/building a 47 GMC. It's been in the works for almost a year. Much of that time was spent finding the right truck. A buddy has it now and is doing some work on it before I get it in two weeks. (glass, wiring etc.) I'll be putting a small block chevy and a 5 speed manual in it. This isn't my first Stovebolt, but it's my first AD truck. I'll be needing all sorts of advice from fitting and mounting the motor in place to adding in a master cylinder for a hydraulic clutch. I'll start those threads in the appropriate places when the time comes. I'll also post pics when able. In the mean time I just wanted to say hi.

Hi.

Welcome to the site, Mark. Technically, you still don't have an A-D truck, those were Chevrolets only. GMCs were called New Design. Have fun building it the way you want. Lots of knowledge here.

Welcome Mark--

You will love this sight; it is loaded with good people and good information. If I can be of any help, I now live in West Branch. We lived in Alma for over 30 years. Best wishes on your project.
