Sweet!! A spray paint rebuild!! looks good to see another Inline sixback on the road!

Just wanting to make sure everything is what it should be. I was confident it was a 250.... but I only know so much.

Started it up , went for a spin around the block ...Then covered her back up .

astrochimp · 11-14-2009, 08:01 PM

Friday, I tore part of the roof off the back of my shop, and threw it into my truck. made me happy to use it like a truck, even got some small scratches on the outside of the bed when I missed.

I put too much in and caused a tire to rub. PO put plywood bed floor in, and left about 2" over hang on one side of the wheel well.

I have several projects going on right now, so we are making a little progress on all of them.

Rusteeze64GB · 11-16-2009, 02:35 AM

Painted my grille support, put it on the truck. Sanded and painted my radiator with high temp/High heat paint. Put a little more paint on the truck.

gmcdude · 11-16-2009, 06:00 PM

I removed the paint from the new 72 gmc grille (I like the chrome) And just like I found out from this site, can't remember who told me but the acetone takes the paint right off,put a coat of chrome polish on it and it looks great.

creep · 11-16-2009, 06:24 PM

I found out why they call wrap-around windshields "knee knockers". OUCH!

1Bad62Pro/Street · 11-16-2009, 07:36 PM

Well.... Dad needed an extra set of jack stands today to use on a customers 49 Chevy.....
So why not take them off my truck!!!!
I gotta get it back on the road to get it out of his way!!!!

What is that stuck to your "B" pillar?

1Bad62Pro/Street · 11-16-2009, 08:15 PM

B Pillar? You mean next to the drivers side window?

*LILRED66* · 11-17-2009, 02:34 AM

The "B" pillar, where the Custom Cab sails go, above the grey spot primer on the driver side.
