The journey of restoration....
I have owned a 1965 GMC long-bed pickup since about 2004 and I am just getting around to restoring it, or at least getting it to run well. It is mostly in good shape, though the wood bed is rotted and it has some body rust. The engine is a straight 6 and runs great. The electrical is trashed and so I am saving up for a new wiring harness. As I rebuild this truck, I feel like I am rebuilding my life at the same time. Fixing what does not work, removing what is not needed and restoring to beauty that which was once beautiful. It is a journey that does not have a schedule and I am not sure where it will take me, but I am looking forward to the journey nonetheless. Come along with me as I travel this road......
