Re: SHOWTIME y'all!!
Waiting .... it's the hardest part. But when you see your truck it'll be all worth while. Can hardly wait to see the pictures of the truck when it's finished.
esll. ![]() Good luck with the project.

Re: SHOWTIME y'all!!
Can we get progess pics?(If the bodyman doesn`t mind)I could see it might make him nervous.But it`s prolly a good idea,anyway.Keeps`em honest
![]() When it`s done you`ll prolly get alot of people pirating your picture and selling it on Ebay out of Canada. ![]()

Re: SHOWTIME y'all!!
Hey GMCjunkie...
How long will the body shop have it? I'm guessing when my 70cst goes in this fall/winter they will have it 3-4 months. Reason-they will be rebuilding the engine, suspension, interior, etc. I agree with the previous coments...the wait will seem like an eternity but once you get it it will have been worth the wait. ![]()

Re: SHOWTIME y'all!!
Thanks everyone!!! Mudder is right, I will be changing from white to a Corvette Anniversary Red, with a White Diamonds top. Both Chevy colors of course, lol.
My body guys, Brett and Jim dont mind pics at all, infact they will be taking some for me. ![]() 70, better plan on a little longer than that in the shop, unless they have NOTHING else to do EXCEPT your truck. Ive learned from many other members (jack ![]() Im horrible with posting pics but will try to get some on here if Thomas takes a nap today!!! LOL Thanks everyone for sharing in my excitement!!!

Re: SHOWTIME y'all!!
I couldn't believe how much more attention my truck got when I went from white to red. So be prepared. You will be like a little girl in a candy store.
