I like your piston shifter grip. :metal: Did you buy that or make it?

I'm also thinking of upgrading to a 4 barrel. A buddy of mine has an intake just laying there :lol: seems almost a shame to waste it.

I wish I could help you with body drop answers but I'm clueless when it comes to that stuff, sorry.

:lol: Well the end result is all that matters and I for one think it's boss! I would have one like it but my truck is column shift so that would be a little weird. Maybe a BFW or something instead...

Looks like your getting 'er done :) Which is more than I can say. I'm on hold building up cash for parts...who woulda thought re-building a 283 would be so expensive! :dohh:

Did you do all that welding yourself?

KroAutomotiveInc 07-26-2011 11:56 PM

Re: 1964 gmc 1000
 
yeah i have welded and fabricated everything my self i have had no help with anything actually ive done everything alone right down to setting up and mounting the bed, hood and doors but i cant say i would have it any other way i hate working with other people especially on some thing im going to call mine!

SulphuriousSam 07-27-2011 05:34 PM

Re: 1964 gmc 1000
 
:lol: Yeah I hear ya. I need my friends to help me out though. I'm mostly learning as I go and having their help shortens the learning curve quite a bit :)

Anyway you have a lot to be proud of, your truck is slick :metal:
