First Time Building a Truck--Nice Job! Pics...
This 72 GMC was just completed by one of my very good customers. This is his first restore on any kind of vehicle. He did most of the work himself.
Notice the repro parts: TG (that looks good to me), grill, bumpers, and all the small parts. The 20" Boyds are a nice touch, too. Good color... Chrome SS Flaming River tilt column is next. |

Whether a first resto or a 1000th, that truck looks killer!
