Re: Jebb's Project 1959 GMC
Cal, to address the question about using the cab. I felt bad taking this one appart at first and that is why I went back and forth so much and why it took me almost 2 years to do it. Well, I don't feel bad anymore. The first reason is that in the past year or so I have become much more of a minamalist. I don't want to save them all anymore, I want to finish something and free up space. The second reason is that I made a new buddy latley who is working on returning his 1959 GMC 1 ton flatbed to it's former pristine condition. He is going stock with his and it has yet a ways to go. Today I donated my parts to his cause, this will give him a really big step in the right direction. He has already rebuilt all his drive train and was working on fixing the drivability when I just happened to be pulling mine appart. This is what he is working with, I have encouraged him to get on the board and start a build thread. This kid is super motivated, he wants to drive his cab away on my old frame on Sunday night.

Re: Jebb's Project 1959 GMC
Jebb, did you lose your host for the pics? I wanted to check out your build and none of your pics appear, just a little box with an X...

Re: Jebb's Project 1959 GMC
Yeah, I used imagestation.com and they shut down. I want to fix it someday but that is a huge task.

Re: Jebb's Project 1959 GMC
Not yet. It still sits in the garage, it's a bit farther along but life has been too busy to focus much on it.
