Just got off the phone with the owner of this 1963 GMC. Lots of history and an interesting story. Owner put this in his garage and locked it up , like he mentioned , but the guy painted his house the same color as the truck !
Yes current owner put the chrome mirror on ,he has the original . He powder coated the rims and new radial tires. Other than that the truck is original paint. Bed wood , as near as we can figure the original owner brush painted the green paint on the wood , possibly sprayed ? Hard to tell. But the bolts all around the perimeter are still plated like they should be on a Pontiac Michigan built GMC.
Current owner in California also lives in Wisconsin in the summers and is only 45 minutes from me .
VIN TAG is spot welded , he double checked that for me .
