Re: '69 K/20 fire truck transformation
It looks perfect Joe.
I love the white, not used often enough on our trucks. And I agree on the dealer decals, nice touch.

Re: '69 K/20 fire truck transformation
Thanks guys, it turned out really good. I'm not a fan of white at all, but I liked it with the red interior. I changed the outside mirrors and added the lower moldings to help break up the solid white.

Re: '69 K/20 fire truck transformation
Looks great and congrats on such a find but I'd have been tempted to keep it just as it was and rejoin the local fire department with that as my response vehicle.

Re: '69 K/20 fire truck transformation
Beautiful job! Is that the original seat cover that was in it when the truck was yellow or did you have it redone?

Re: '69 K/20 fire truck transformation
That's the original seat. It has a few imperfections, but it's pretty nice. It had a perfect original dash pad too
