Flawless Ride Back From The Pinstriper's - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Really, the *second* longish drive of about 50 or so miles. It was today, on the way up the hill from Fowler, CA to home-base in Coarsegold, CA.

Sea level to about 2,500 feet of elevation in 92 degree weather. Vintage Air *on* the whole time. The temp guage didn't move "north" of well within operating range.

The only time the 350 shifted down was on the big, short hill 500 feet before my driveway.

The pinstriper did his job. The truck did hers. Here are a few bad photog shots after we got home.

I like the pinstriping job, just enough to break up the solid colors, I'm going to have to find one in my area to break up my paint job, how much does it cost down there for that?

Thanks much.
This job was two hundred.
That's U.S.

You might want to consider clear bra for the front of that hood.

Thanks, Man.
I'll try to get some decent shots tomorrow outside of the garage.

Hey, Tom.
I think I'll just drive her, let her get funky, and then fix her.
