00 GMC 3500 Dually "Atlas Duce"

Well I am done with this truck, its getting sold.

You want to know why GM went broke? This is why:



They started making trucks out of Plastic.

Well the truck had to go back into the shop because the radiator was cracked, that was Monday, I still do not have it back.

I'm getting pretty pissed about it. But I have decided for the time being to keep the truck.

Tonight I am going down to look at a parts truck that has a very good looking dash in it, the only issue I see is the center screw hole in it broke out, but it looks to be repairable. So we will see how that goes.

It also has a nice looking set of doors on it, and a Vortec 350/4L80E setup, not sure if the rear will be a full or semi floater 14 bolt but we will see.

The bed and tailgate also look pretty clean in the pics I am going to look at it today or tomorrow so we will see how that turns out.

Also yesterday I priced out a new P&J T9 series 24' deck tilt trailer.



Going to get mine in red with the Oak floor. I should have my hands on it in April or May sometime.

Then in June the big move is happening.



I had been considering buying a 40' trailer so I could get both my jeep and my 72 on it at the same time, but instead I am going with a plan B that involves leaving the 72 at a friends house in Kansas for a while until I get my shop in Montana setup.

Now I just need to get my damn truck back from the shop. Being stuck in a rental car is getting old in a big hurry.

man i know how you feel, on my third dually. had a 6.5 it blew up and i cussed gm mightily. workin on a cummins swap for my project. i still drive a 01 1500 and tow a tractor. so have fun and good luck with the move.

curious to se how everything going to work out , maibe it wouldve been a better idea to done the radiator youreself after they suplied the part , it isnt that big of a job
