Hello Guys,

I've had a 1985 4x4 for about 10 years now and have used this forum to answer countless questions so I have decided to try and contribute with my new truck. I recently bought a 86 GMC crew cab. Was an old firesquad truck and I plan to do the shortbox conversion this month. The deal I made with my wife is that I would be selling my single cab as soon as the crew is operational. I am thinking about posting it for sale on here for a lower price because I want it to go to someone that will appreciate it like I have.

Anyways here's a pic of the truck I just bought. I am planning on making a detailed thread of the conversion when I get the time.

Thanks guys. I am going to change the paint scheme. Thinking about dark navy at this point. Here's a pic of the K10 I just sold. Sad day

I have started on the shortbed conversion. What topic should I post the project under?
