Over the last couple of days I got the column rebuilt and sealed up the floors, rocker panels and rain gutters.

Mocked the truck again today. Still deciding if I want to use the original doors or the extra set I have.

Painted the firewall and the inside of the fenders. The picture of the fender shows the color better.

Did some more painting today. Got the whole interior done but the dash. Has a little Orange peel but not bad for a back yard paint job.

Got the dash painted. I'm thinking about color sanding the interior to remove some to the orange peel.

Re: '68 GMC 1 ton dually restoration

Nice looking build you have going on. I am also trying to save one of these 1 ton dually's. I envy your clear direction. I am torn as of yet on what exactly to do with mine other than I "had to save it".

Glad everyone likes the paint, I still think the interior needs to be color sanded and buffed.
