Hello from New Orleans!

Hey everyone, I just bought a 84 Gmc Sierra after months of looking for a squarebody and I couldn't pass it up.
No rust holes except for one spot under the windshield and a couple on the hood and the cowl panel is off in the picture. Also, the body is straight which was a big plus and no dents!

Welcome to the forum.
In Your profile it says,1984 and the engine is shown as a 283,now that sounds inneresting,would You care to expound upon that crossover???
I`m sure others will be interest in this story too.
Thank You for posting pics. of Your new GMC,what kind of plans do You have for it ???

Lol, the 283 is from a buddy of mine who was going to put it back in his '67 impala but he decided to build a 383 and he left the engine to me for an s10 that I was going to v8 swap but I decided to use it for this truck instead. I can't argue with a free rebuilt engine now can I?
and my plans right now are just to get it back and running, lower it and eventually tub it for a pro street daily driver. Between all of that I'll just be cleaning and painting a lot of stuff to make it look nice for cruise nights as well.

Thanks guys, I've had a hell of a time just getting it back home Tuesday and I'm already heading to the junkyard this weekend to see if I can find a new hood, motor mounts, transmission and steering column for the truck. I did see a suburban today with everything I needed, I hope it's there when I go back
