Re: What would you do differently?
I've had so much time to think about it before I can actually do it that I have several trucks planned out ahead that may never come to be. Nothing has changed on "Project Poorboy",but if it does it will be before I get to it. It's supposed to be about using up what I have in parts reserve. But,since it's supposed to appear to be a '67 GMC I have made some changes by buying '67 things that have come up for sale reasonably. But,I sell what I was going to use to pay for that stuff,so it's still using what I have. I've wanted it to be a Wideside all along and am having thoughts of going Fenderside. But,I have both so,again,it's using what I have. Certain changes I always keep open till late in a build,like colors. I'm sticking with red interior so the paint will be something that works with that. It may be a color you expect to see with red or it may be a head turner. That vibe is on hold pending my mood when I get there and seeing how the truck moves me once it takes form. One thing I've learned is,even with the most concrete no doubt about it plan,it's best to wait as long as possible to decide key things until it just can't wait any longer. I just keep my options floating around till then and that gives a chance for anything overlooked or new to come into play.
