I don't have a wideside or I'd offer those measurements you need, so I will say just two things more. I hope others will read your story and view the pictures. Also Happy Veterans Day and I wish to thank you for your service to our Country.

Thanks Foley, and Happy Veterans Day to everyone else on here who served or serves. Yes, I have done a lot of work on it. After it was stolen and stripped back in '95, it sat in California until 2002. I had a feeling my unit would get deployed to Iraq in 2003, so I went to CA to get it and get it back on the road. I doubled my efforts after we got orders to deploy as I wanted to get it on the road before I left to Iraq, just in case I did not make it back. I was thinking about trying to submit an article to one of those classic truck magazines on my disc brake conversion, so I took step by step photos. That never happened. Oh well.

UPDATE:

So..after much consideration, I decided to purchase some property out in the unincorporated part of the County and build myself a shop. Problem solved! I went to CO a few weeks back and brought the GMC to Texas. I am looking forward to continuing to to work on my GMC and my newest project...a numbers matching 1968 Dodge Charger that belonged to my uncle when he was in high school and has been sitting in a barn for over 30 years. It is great to finally have all my tools and vehicles in one place after 18 plus years of moving from base to base.

Now that I have all my stuff in one place, I started going through some boxes and found this radio kit I bought over 10 years ago. I wonder what its worth now?
