Wow. Nice truck. Love the color. May I ask the color? Mine is getting ready to go to paint and looking at Kona Blue Met.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Very nice, wouldn't mind a few more pix.
Do you have a build thread?

I'm on holiday, taking pictures of the easy to photograph trucks left out to pasture. Would love to take the time to drive off the interstates.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Like the stance of your truck. What size wheels and tires do you have? Thx

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

The 55 Gmc sure is a step up front end bling compared to a Chevy, kinda like a Caddy and a Chevy..

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Here is mine, took 3 years, full restoration.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

is that a mat silver paint?


ThanksRay

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

It's called Tunnel Ram Grey Metallic by Hot Rod Flatz. I painted it myself it turned out okay (pretty forgiving), I like stuff pretty plain but surprising enough people seem to like it? At car shows people are always rubbing their hands across it.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

beautiful truck thanks for the info on the paint!

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

My wheels are 15x8 corvette Rally and the tires are 255/70/15

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

The color I used was a 1998 dodge color pb3 is the code it is called intense blue pearl effect

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Thanks. Any tire rub? Or, did you modify the fenders (roll the fender lips)?

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

No I have no clearance issues I used a 1979 trans am rear axle so it is just a little narrower than the original 1/2 inch I believe but no issues

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 

Great. Thanks for the info. I'm using a stock axle so maybe a bit wide. Looking at 235/70/15 on 15x7 wheels.

Re: How about some pics of 47-59

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
