Help finding pics... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have spent alot of time on the 67-72 and 73-87 side of this forum but have sold all that stuff off and have recently aquired a new project. A long time great friend of mine had a 55 first series 3600 5 window he was getting out from under so I figured I would help him out. (Thanks Matt) When done it will be a 3100 short bed. I am stoked to get into this as the AD trucks have always been one of my favorite body styles. That being said I have been looking at alot of pics lately looking for ideas and inspiration. A while back I saw a AD truck on here that from what I remember was nearly complete but was all in bare metal. May have been just a roller but I dont recall. If anyone remembers this truck please post up a link. Thanks fellas.

It wasn't in the thread I thought it was in but I have seen the photos of the truck in bare metal in someone's build thread.

If you are looking at bagged slammed trucks Frank64's truck is probably in the top handful of the nicest owner built trucks in the world bar none.

I'd just plan on taking a couple of hours to go through the build threads one at a time and glean ideas. It is well worth the time and the guys have already met and solved a lot of the issues that come up when building one of these trucks.

Yeah, Ive been through the builds multiple times and have been around these trucks for years. Was just looking for that specific trucks pics. Thanks guys.
