GMC sierra grande from 1980
fleetside V8 350
1/2 ton 2X4
this is the truck when i bought it in 2004
here i recently started to strip down the truck
the engine,and all electrical was quite a mess
lifted the engine and all electrical out
that's better, time to repair and clean up
i want airco in that truck (here is an accumulator and such , i bought it on e-bay)
the aircopart is cleaned , repainted and even a new accumulator(firewall now in black)
and a new sticker on the airco case
old frontside fender driversside, looks like somebody tried to ram the gmc, i would love to see the othercar, haha!
the original bench was all torn and ripped, i reupholstered it to this beauty
the door on the driversside was in really bad shape so we repaired it
welded all the holes in the tailgate, they were there originaly for a bedcover but i don't want it so the holes had to go!
repainted the dash from tan to black metallic
holes and rust , repair time
you begin with this
and then this
i cleaned, primed and painted the bed black
the underside and the chassis i did too
i isolated the cab floor ,sides and ceiling , cold stays out and heat stays in,also great sound dampening materials used
brake booster and master cilinder cleaned and repainted
my radiator mount is finished, painted black,with the inside cab hood release system:
front of the chassis with steering gear and lines, and you can see part of my new installed sway bar too
my engine;freshly redone, only the headers need to be mounted on(but i have them already, flowtech holley)
another pic of m engine, it's a 1975 350 CI 5.7L V8 with LPG setup
okay, i did more then that but i don't have pictures yet so,
coming soon !
thanks for looking !
