I would like to find a GMC engine but would settle for a 235 or 261. Who has the biggest selection of Art Deco parts? Dave

I really enjoyed the photos. there are many suppliers but I would guess that Chevs of the 40s and Jim Carter will have a great selection. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 637 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 637 | I spy an airplane wing in the pic, also it looks like a very nice hanger. I hear there are more pilots in AK than non pilots. I have over 1,600 hrs., love to fly, and love my 'bolts too. I'd like to drive up to AK one day, but have to get the 'bolt more reliable first. Good luck on your project, I have 2 GMC's, they are great trucks. | | | | | Joined: May 2004 Posts: 920 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: May 2004 Posts: 920 | That thing is begging for a 302 and a WC 5spd. Oh wait, that's me.  | | | | | Joined: Aug 2004 Posts: 52 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Aug 2004 Posts: 52 | Hail Homer, congrats on the Art Deco GMC! I can appreciate your trouble finding the lower grill, I'm looking for the same thing. I might be able to help with the engine, though. I've got the original still in mine, but it's going to be replaced with a Pontiac V8. It ran the last time I checked , but that was over a year ago. PM me if you'd like, maybe we can pool resources.

This old truck sure looks neat, but where are the heated seat controls?!?

Yes that is my hanger and I really like it,so far it has become a great storage area, planes boats trucks snowmachines welders and anything else that needs to stay warm and dry. Dave
