Hoping someone can shed some light on this. More of a truck guy so this is a bit out of my realm. I see plenty of guys doing front clips or...
I realize that this thread has been quiet for a while except for a comment just recently, but as I stated before I would be back once I was...
Thanks for the info guys.... I still haven't decided yet but better figure it out soon
Thanks Bruce, thats a pretty cool story. I am actually into 50's GM pick up trucks, so was hoping to see some of that there. Thanks for the...
HI folks, Still pretty new to the site and have been having incredible truck purchase falling through difficulties so haven't had any updates....
Syndicate, Ive been checking this thread out for a while now and I gotta say that the work youve done and the help youve offered others is...
Thats exactly how I feel about the truck at this point and want nothing to do with it, even more so because this guy is an absolute a**hole....
Understood... I cant really afford to either, but if it comes to it, dropping a bunch more money on shipping isnt very appealing right now and the...
So i went outside to the garage and took some measurements off my fathers true short box 56 gmc 1/2 ton. I measured the back of the front wheel...
The box is clearly not a true short box, its a long box that was shortened. he has a title that matches the serial number on the truck, which...
He has been paid but has agreed to relist it. He said that if he doesnt get the money for the truck that we paid when he relists it that he would...
Yes you are absolutely correct. I called ebay and they told me that, and provided a couple alternatives to contact for help. We paid the deposit...
Like I said, Im new to all this. Should I be hesitant to post pics on here of the truck after I described it and my concerns with it in this...
I guess next time Ill have to politely ask someone on here to take a look at a truck for me so that I dont get caught in the same type of mess...
No from what I can tell they arent. The middle pockets are closer to the front of the box/cab. This means he took it out between the front of...
The truck was listed on ebay and we called up and bought it directly from him. He was getting pissed about questions even beforehand which, as...
Thanks so much for your help. Thats exactly what I figured. This truck has obviously had some stuff done to it that Im not willing to accept....
Yes, I found that out when I was looking it up. Longer box meant longer wheelbase. This truck looks to have the regular wheel base with a short...
Thanks for your reply. I just dont want to get a truck home that has been all basterdized and cut up. At this point the relationship with the...
Hi guys, This is only my 3rd thread since introducing myself a few months ago. I have a bit of a concern/question I hope to be able to get a...
I hear ya on that one, Im leaning towards just getting it home soon. Thanks for the advice, makes sense. Does it cost more to ship this time...
Lol ya, i hear ya on the wheels. I dont find them too bad for now. its my truck but my father and I will be working on it together. He likes...
Im planning on leaving the body and finish the way it is, might look into adding more red to both sides around the doors and covering up that door...
First thing I need to do is put a bed in for sure... Im gonna look into lowering it a bit depending on the fit with those big boots on it. So...
Good day, I introduced myself on here a few months ago and now I just wanted to announce that I picked up a new truck, another 56 gmc half...
My father uses his 56 gmc a lot to move stuff around. He used marine plywood painted black and just put the rails on top of it... looks great and...
Thanks for the welcome. Just took a look at your chevy build, looks pretty good. Im no where near as involved in things as that, but Im looking...
Currently have a 56 gmc 1/2 ton p.u. that I share with my father as well as a 77 camaro RS that was left by my grandfather.
Good day, Elliot from Ottawa Ontario Canada. I read the sticky and then finished filling out my bio and figured I had better introduce myself....
