Re: Project "Poison Ivy" 54 GMC
rocks, I know this thread is a little old so some guys might not get on it too often. I don't mean to answer a question that isn't aimed at me but, Fritz sold this truck.

Re: Project "Poison Ivy" 54 GMC
again, I feel weird answering for fritz. I follow him on IG and he seems to be doing just fine. driving his GILOW truck. I last spoke with him at pittsburgh autorama, he had his GILOW truck there. He said ivy is in NY now.

Re: Project "Poison Ivy" 54 GMC
Thanks for the reply 99! I figured not too many would see it just wanted to acknowledge the workwanship that went into that machine. Love reading these threads as it gives us all motivation to stay on top of our projects.
