Hey guys I'm new to this site, but I've looked at some of the other conversions in this forum and thought you might wanna see what i was workin on this spring. Its a 37 Gmc 1.5 ton on a 96 dodge 3500 dually chassis 6bt, custom hauler bed air ride, 22.5 wheels, etc. I'll get with it today and put on some pics, and i got alot so i'll start with pics from the beginning. I left the project right at paint (had to go make a living) but it was a driver last time i worked on it. Hope you enjoy.

I built a custom hauler bed for the truck, this took quite a bit of time and work. But I think it was worth it.

This is the bed with the sides on it.



I made a pretty cool hidden fuel door between the tool box and rear fender.


And because of the tight space i put on an air cylinder to pull the lever for the gooseneck ball. Just flip a switch in the cab and the spring loaded ball pops up.

Here is the engine and chassis after some cleaning and a fresh coat of paint.

This shows some of the bed work up close after sandblast. It took alot of fab work to get it looking this nice.

Hey.... nice job...... looks oddly pretty familiar to me.....







AWESOME work by the way..... looking great.... (I have a GM 1-ton under mine and a 4BT vs. the dodge and 6BT)
