Showing off a little...

The GMC is back together and driving...or was. Now I'm working on suspension...It's too hard for me to climb into...cough cough.

Just a few pics--




And a cool limo that I saw on my way to work.

Very nice pickup - I like the color and the way it sits.

Re: Showing off a little...

I-40 east and west and Arkansas highway 95 area?? You in the Morrilton area?

Truck looks nice. Let some air out of the ride height. I'd be getting some nose bleed. Your door panels and instrument panel look clean. What didja use on them?

Re: Showing off a little...

Haha, I guess you've been around! Yeah, this is where I call home and I work at the Carquest just left of the picture.

The door panels and cluster are the same silver metallic that the top is coated in. I like the results.

As far as the height, that's why the truck is on jack stands right now. New rear springs since one was cracked along with a complete front end rebuild. She should be styling a little more after this job.

Thanks for all the kind words!

Re: Showing off a little...

Hey I've been there at that Carquest, back when I worked for Asplundh at Petit Jean Electric, I was working around the Jerusalem area and we would occasionally go to Morrilton for parts or lunch. Sharp truck!!!

Re: Showing off a little...

Thanks guys!

Corn...man that looks awesome. Can't wait for my new stance!

special-k, neither of my colors are factory to my knowledge. I just picked out these two colors from Smart Shopper's urethane bc/cc system. Blue starburst metallic and silver metallic. Tires are 275/60.

black and blue, I might have sold you something! lol
