one more of the D's and my GMC color coded bezel and floor mat.

70c10 · 03-10-2005, 10:23 AM

WOW!. Nice job.

**CPNE** · 03-10-2005, 10:32 AM

What's left? Tailgate trim?

Super excellent job, but she deserves the OE steelies and hubcaps IMO. If I were to buy it thats the only change I'd make, oh and bias plies too.

J/K, I really like the fact you stayed true to the GMC special gauge cluster color and green interior. Your truck truely stands head and shoulders above the me-too crowd! If it were parked for show at a meet, I'd be drawn to it immediately. 2 thumbs up!

Great looking truck! Beautiful paint scheme.

99% is probably the best it will ever get, there is alway something.

Beautiful truck! Love that it's a GMC.

**Joesjunk** · 03-10-2005, 12:28 PM

That is one amazing looking truck!!! I really like how you kept it stock, but with different wheels.

BigSky71 · 03-10-2005, 01:17 PM

Is that a 4wd? J/K, great looking truck and refreshing to see it so original! So do you plan on using that beautiful wood bed for hauling?

Sweet ride there.

aitch · 03-10-2005, 01:12 PM

Wow what an inspiration, I'm working on my 69 GMC LWB and will depart a bit from the original with wheels and shaved trim. I like the Torque Thrusters! Am putting 5 spoke Boyd's on mine.
Great job!
