I just acquired a 1965 GMC truck. I am looking forward to building her up into a nice driver. She is a very solid Oklahoma truck. It is a camper special with 8 lug wheels. I am planing on installing disc brakes on the front, power steering and a hydro-boost brake booster. She is going to have a 350 Chevy V8 and either a NV3500 or a 700R-4 transmission. The truck has an early air conditioning system. I am not sure if I will repair that or install a new Vintage Air unit. I also want to add cruise control.
I have an awful lot of work ahead of me and I am hoping I can find some good advise on this forum.

Congratulations on your recent acquisition, Mike! You came to the right place for advice by finding and joining our forum. You haven't told us yet, though, what engine is currently in your '65. If it's a V6, you'll find most of our forum members here will urge you to keep it and not turn your truck into yet another boring Chevy and detract from its value.
We're looking forward to photos and hearing more about your truck!
