Re: 55 2nd serie GMC

Still working on the cab body work, getting really close to be ready for paint. The last few weeks has been more blocking and primer sealer.

Re: 55 2nd serie GMC

Well still waiting on the body man to be done with the cab so not much to report for now. Here's what i'm working on while waiting for my truck to come back from the body shop. Its a friend of mine, 1939 Buick, nova clip 6.0 liter engine S10 rear end. I didn't do the clip but sure looks well done. I have to rebuild the front end install steering column, wiring and get it running the owner want to keep the body as is.
