Hello every body! I am new to the site but it is the best thing that has happened to me so far! Its awesome, you all are.
I am taking on a full restoration of a 1974 gmc k20 that i saved from the junkyard for a price of 50 dollars. Its no gem but is not just the average rusty squarebody! It was one of the few that was equipped with the rare wooden bed floor option from the factory on an 8 ft fleetside bed! Unfortuatly that and the original motor parted company from the truck many years ago. (Looking for a wooden bed floor let me know if you got one) It has been quite a project and am excited! I am at the point of putting it all back together, unfortunaly i can not upload enough pics to do what i have done justice.
I know you all love project pics on this site, so here are a few!
This is the day it was pulled from its grave.
Got rust?
Just thought i would share my project!

Carefully slinging the cab into the garage for bodywork. Take a look at the drivers side rocker panel.
