My 54 GMC Build

[docrock]

18 for the one tank I ran it. Probably could have got 22 if I wasn't flooring it everywhere

I should have kept this truck. It sold again. I missed it on ebay in January. Love to see some pics of it out there somewhere

Do you know if the epoxy primer seals the rust like the stop-rust stuff that turns black?

The converter works great on turning rust to iron oxide. Then spray epoxy primer on top of that. Every attempt should be made to sand the metal with a course grit to get the best bite of the epoxy into the metal. Metal etch works great to for bonding to bare metal and then epoxy over that.

I miss this truck. Any chance anyone has seen it?

Has anyone seen my old project?

you should build another one or buy one that is as close to "built like you want" and change a few things to get it like you want it. it seems, since there are no replies to your querry, that your old truck is under wraps somewhere.

I think you are right. I am working on another 42 right now but maybe later if I dont run out of gas
