I fell in love with trucks in this thing. It is/was a purpose built tow vehicle with an attitude prob. I still can't get myself to sell this truck, I just love it too much and my blood literally runs through it. She sits in a climate controlled garage near by.

I am he second owner of this GMC which was an original AZ truck. It had a 500 hp naturally aspirated 355(was prepared for 200 shot of nitrous) full roller,custom billet cam from LSM in Waterford (C5R guys and more) 230-236 duration if I remember right, about 550 total lift, I fully ported the iron camel back heads which have a 3 angle valve job and stainless swirled valves, port matched the Wieand Stealth intake, Holley 650 double pumper with removed/manual choke, high flow water pump, electric fuel pump, taylor wires of course, MSD HEI ignition, 80 generator, Dougs Tri-Y long tube headers, custom dual 2 1/2" x-pipe with dynomax straight through mufflers, Dana 60 w/4.10 gear (one wheel wnder as can be seen in the pics. Well it it popped after 40k very very hard miles thanks to an out of spec torque wrench.It also has an almost completely new interior and the front bumper was poorly straightend and terribly chromed by Nu-Chrome in Tucson and it was their second try. Most of the stainless is very good and original but I did replace the side views, the tail light trim and all the lenses and most of the weather strip is new or will be since I have it all. Urethane cab mounts, sway bar and rear bushing and I painted the bottom as can be seen and the chasis. We also installed an engine oil cooler and trans cooler for the TH350 which is nicely built with a Transgo Kit and other great parts from the awsome people at Hughes in Tuscon. Also in the cab are the original gauge along with full Auto Meter for oil temp, tach, trans temp etc...

I will post more on this in the future.
