is the blue just the original color flattened? and how do you like the Vanilla Shake? the truck looks great! i'm leaning toward flat/satin colors on mine in the future, but i'm not sure if i want a flat/glossy combo or just both flat finishes

Re: 63 Short Fleet Build
Absolutely outstanding

Your truck has to be one of my all time favorites.....of course being a '63 has some to do with it.

Outstanding truck, I was checking out my father-in-laws '02 and liked the seat belt attached to the seats set up. Did the seat rails need much fabrication to make them fit?? Later

You need two tools in life: duct tape and WD-40. If it moves and it shouldn't, you use duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, you use WD-40.

Re: 63 Short Fleet Build
Hey AviatOr,

Your truck is friggin excellent! I've seen pics of it and liked the color combo but after following the build I like it even more. .

It's nice to see the extra effort put in to make things right! Your craftsmanship is great! Keep posting the pics!!!

John
