Greetings Earthlings

Evening guys

I just pulled a farm fresh 53 GMC 1/2 ton shortbed from under a falling barn.
No matching motor or tranny. It has an original huge rats nest center cab made with seat packing and insulation for rat warmth and comfort for all the baby rats. The metal of the truck is 98% solid with a few small dents. Thinking shes gonna make a cool rat rod minus the rats.

Mr. Smiles, hello and welcome to RRR from northern Alberta. Don't let a little thing like no engine or transmission get you down; we hotroders love the challenge of finding and installing some other 'cool' powertrain. Are you thinking of putting a Ford motor in there? [dr[ddd
Oh yes, pictures.
