Back from the paint shop - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Picked the truck up from the paintshop last week. He was to take it in April but just got it into his schedule a month ago. It was worth the wait! I had welded the seams on the inside so he filled all of them and did a super job on the interior and jams. The door fit is awesome. Now to put everything together for the final time without too many marks. It's very intimidating! I want to insulate the firewall, put in the wiring harness, then solve all the issues with gauges, charging etc. before we set the front on.

I like it. Can you tell us what color that is? A stock factory color or what?

Thanks for the comments. It's been a long road, but everyone that has helped have done a super job. That is victory red, the GM color.
