sweet truck man. i may have to swing one exit over and check it out sometime. i keep seeing all these awesome colors and cant seem to decide what color i want mine. i guess i should stay away from this color since we'll be running in the same town(s)

Heath,

It was actually super easy.....I actually taped up the 1st cover and sprayed it with some high temp semi-gloss (I didn't waste my time taping the second one or the Air cleaner cover)....I waited about 5 minutes, then put some minerial spirits or paint thinner on a rag and wiped off the finned/ raised and over sprayed areas.....then wiped it down real good with a wet cloth.....be sure to use cloth that won't leave lint like I did originally!!.....hope this helps and let me know if you need anymore info!!

my67chevytruck · 07-30-2009, 08:59 AM

cool, i was thinking along those lines, thanks for the info.

my67chevytruck · 08-03-2009, 07:06 AM

lookin good....

89 GMC Sierra · 08-03-2009, 11:43 PM

I love the way your truck turned out it is fricken awesome.
Right now my Dad and I are in the process of fixing up my truck its a 89 GMC Sierra c1500 short box. We decided to paint it a tangerine color that looks similar to the color on your truck and after seeing how great it turned out on your truck it puts my mind at ease.
I love the way your truck turned out its just awesome haha

Tim_A · 08-06-2009, 04:49 AM

sweet truck, man! Enjoyed your thread. Something tells me that mine can take longer than anticipated.

Thanks Tim A.....yeah, I thought it was funny when you said it'll be a quick upgrade!!!

Here's the Mistress at the Lake!!!....Took this with my camera phone...turned out pretty good!

VA72C10 · 08-16-2009, 10:06 PM

That's a sweet camera phone picture

my67chevytruck · 08-17-2009, 07:20 AM

Ah.... aint nothing like being alone with your mistress at the lake!!

72mistressc10 · 08-25-2009, 07:14 PM

Just an FYI I have a 72 c10 long bed, your truck has been officially selected for my inspiration. I might even go as far as jacking your color also. Mine will have minor differences and probably won't look as sweet as yours but none the less, I will try my darndest.

I am flattered that my truck is to be your inspiration...Thanks so much man!!

Let me know if you need paint codes and I'll pass them along...Although, I believe I posted them in my build thread here somewhere....

Only differences I see in our "Mistresses" is your's has long "legs"...and mine has short

EDIT: and it's a 72....

I look forward to following along with your build thread!!!...Thanks again....

72mistressc10 · 08-26-2009, 04:49 PM

Hey GC in your sig it says you are running a 2.5" front drop and a 4" rear drop. Wouldn't your nose be sticking up rather than the rake you have right now?
