Re: 1964 gmc 1000

anyone ever comment or have questions on this forum?

Re: 1964 gmc 1000

Wow! You have certaintly made alot of progress. The pictures make it look like it is easy, however; I'm sure it is alot harder than it looks.

You have some metal fabrication skills for sure. Very nice welds. I like the glovebox door and shifter handle. Nice touch. I also like the flat black with the white roof.

What other plans do you have it mind?

Good luck,

Keith

thanks guys for future plans wheels and tries, new gas tank under bed, floor in bed, new front fenders, may be a manifold that mounts more then one crab or a 4 barrel:D and long term plans i would like to paint it a dark blue with flat black roof and rebuild the motor!

Re: 1964 gmc 1000

also I'm going to be using the truck as a daily driver and work truck as soon as its on the road i work for a plumbing company i work as the maintenance over several shops and have to have tools, booms, shovels etc everyday. I also want to start collecting scrap metal on weekends and around work and
