Hello from Hot Tucson, AZ - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Well putting the "Hot" in hot rod was never easier than stepping outside.

Although I can't complain having had two wonderfully wet, rain soaked days, although it makes hauling an engine, shall we say, interesting.

I'm working on a '49 GMC 100 Long Bed. I bought the truck complete, some of the sheet metal needs some TLC, but I've got a complete truck to work from, not a bad start for my first build.

I do have a question or two about some OE hardware, I will post in the proper forum.

Thanks,

Pete

Thanks for the warm welcome! What do you East Coasters use for undercoatings if anything?

I'm putting POR-15 on the frame, but I'm thinking of using some tractor paint on the rest of the under-parts.

Just curious what y'all use.
