I do the dance of joy!!
This morning the body shop sent their truck by to pick-up my '69 GMC. They are going to do stage one of the restoration - repair cab corners and cab supports. When this is done the truck will pass the govt safety inspection and I'll be able to get it on the road!!!!!!
I'm pumped! Just thought I'd share the news with some folks who would understand what it means to finally start turning restoration plans into reality.
