Hello everyone, My name is Kyle. I bought my first 1982 GMC truck last month after being a jeep guy for the last 10 years. What made me make the decision to change was what happened when i crashed my 1999 Jeep Cherokee. Where the GMC would have protected me and my Gf the jeep did not. i broke my leg in 4 places and she broke both legs and her pelvis. the only reason she is still hear is because her seat broke and allowed her to be pushed into the back seat area. so no more jeeps for me for daily driving and road trips. Now to get back to the truck.
I picked up a 1982 GMC 2500 heavy 3/4 ton 4x4. It has a 305 out of a newer car with a big cam, only has about 90,000km on it, runs great but has no go when you stand on it. also has a 4 speed with PTO winch attached to it. unfortunately it has a big ass flat deck on the back. i hope that i can find a welder soon and take the flat deck apart and slim it up a bit. it was definitely used for work before i got it. i have some question about the truck and what not so i will throw up a build thread when i get a chance to take some photos when i get a camera. thanks for reading and hope to talk to you all over the foreseeable future.
here is what she looked like when i picked her up and put some round rubbers on her. brought it home and woke up to 3 flats.
