Re: 55 2nd serie GMC

Wow really looks great! I like the decision to go with a 57 Chevy hood this time, makes the truck look really clean.

Since you are now an expert at assembling these trucks I have a question. Why did you decide to put the fenders on before the doors? Wouldn't it be more chance of chipping the paint in that order?

Obviously you know what you're doing, just curious for when I have to do it next time...thanks!

Its actually the same type of hood I had on the first time around. For the fenders and doors well I had everything mucked up and lined up previously and drilled small aligning holes in the door hinges so they go back at the exact location when you reassembly.
