Finally out of paint jail! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

After 6 months, the old girl is back where she belongs - I still have to take it back to fix the little stuff, but she's for the most part done - it turned out really nice.

clos69 · 07-31-2010, 12:34 AM

Wow!!! Very nice...love the black wood...awesome and congratz

**leddzepp** · 07-31-2010, 12:34 AM

Lookin' tough

**Dieselwrencher** · 07-31-2010, 12:37 AM

Man, that does look very good! Loving the black and black wood!

vectorit · 07-31-2010, 12:41 AM

Very very nice! I too like the bed wood.

Congrats!

dan42 · 07-31-2010, 12:52 AM

Thanks! Unfortunately, as you can see, I already have a crack in one of the boards - I'm thinking I can seal it and paint it, 'cause it's only about a eighth to a quarter inch deep, but I was gonna get hold of Mar-k and see what they think. I don't want to take off the bed again if I can avoid it and it's gonna be garaged, so it won't be exposed to the weather much.

Wow, came out great!

You don't see many black 67's. It looks really great with all of the trim too.

reds_racing · 07-31-2010, 09:44 AM

Absolutely gorgeous! Maybe the toughest looking truck I've seen on here!!!

efsoccer9 · 07-31-2010, 10:13 AM

Dan, your baby will have a twin in a few months, my 67 is in the can for the same paint scheme! My floor is steel though, and I didn't know how hard it would be to do the wood overlay so they are going to just patch up existing bed and paint it black.

reds_racing · 07-31-2010, 10:24 AM

Dan, Can we get a shot of the interior????

**70cst** · 07-31-2010, 10:27 AM

**N2TRUX** · 07-31-2010, 10:32 AM
