While I was there I helped them hang the hood. They are waiting on one headlight adjuster and a hood adjustment and it is done.

They let me fire it up while I was there. It runs so smooth and sounds nice and quiet.

Now that's a stock truck I could actually drive. V8 power and it looks great! The older trucks with the splash-oiled 6 just don't have the reliability for me to even consider a stock one. That Cameo is just a sweet truck!

Miayota - been a fan for a while of your work ... you have a good eye for vintage tin & it shows.

I hope you have continued sucess in your hobby/side work.

Miayota, your 49 Silver Dollar is perfect. Would love to discuss how you achieved the exterior finish.

Pardon my ignorance but how do I post a photo>

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 
Simplest way is with a Photobucket, Fliker or some picture hosting site. Do you have one of those?

All I have is Picassa which I don't even know if it is a hosting site. I am techno-dinosaur and all this modern stuff is really Greek to me.

Is your picasa web albums? If you access your picassa albums online (through a google+ account) then you're set. If not, you'll need to use one of the sites that ratty 46 mentioned. You need your photos uploaded to the web somehow. Once you have your photos in a photo hosting site, view the picture you want to post in full-size, and then right-click on it and click "Copy Image URL". Once you've done that, in your message window on this page click the little picture icon (it says insert image if you hover over it) above the text box, press CTRL+V (paste) to put the link in the box that pops up, and press OK. That will put the correct code in your message to display the image. Repeat as necessary. If you're not sure, click "preview post" at the bottom to see how it looks.

If you want to use photobucket you can do it a little easier by copying and pasting the code directly from photobucket.

Here's a thread as well: Photo Posting Thread

No it is not Picassa web albums. It is just a folder I keep photos in. Thanks anyway.

Love that color!!

PhoenixRisinggmc 03-04-2014 03:04 PM

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 
thanks I love the color too. it's a blend that my paint guy and I came up with. it's plum-crazy purple tweaked out a little bit. little more silver added and darker on the purple and more metallic added. just wanted something different!

Seamus 03-04-2014 03:16 PM

Re: How about some pics of 47-59
 
Mine is "Ultra Violet Metallic" one year only 2004 Chevrolet SSR color my late wife picked out of the sales brochure. In true "Red Hat Society" tradition, the interior is red. Unfortunately she didn't survive cancer to see or drive it. Women love it!!

afternoon Seamus, sorry to hear about your wife and my condolence's go out to you. would like to see a larger photo of your truck to see the color clearly. sounds like a great color, and I agree the color attracts lot's of women to it. at least it seems that way when I go to week-end car shows or whatever type I attend.
