    Well guys I'm back if you remember me from about a year ago. I lost interest in doing to restoration because I was unsure of my mechanical and metal skills etc.... But I took a few classes on welding and "Ag Mechanics" which we tear apart a small engine and put it back together, so I now think I'm ready to take on the project. It is a 1966 GMC C20. 4-on-the-floor with the 250 engine.

    Thanks for the welcome. I went and looked the truck over today again and found some bad rust spots becide the gas tank in the corners of the cab. I looked for about a 1/2 hour and haven't found any patch pannels for it, anyone know where I could find some? Also another question I had was with the radiator. Will about any radiator work from a car with the same size engine or bigger if the radiator fits in the current mount?

    Any v-8 rad should work if it will fit in the space provided. There are cab corner panels availible if thats what you need. I'l look them up for you.
