Re: Dad's 1979 GMC Heavy Half Transformation
We made some progress this evening, Mike came up to work on his truck, and get a little gun time in. We got the core support, and inner fenders shot satin black, and got the back of the hood, the door hinges and bolts, and the front valance painted blue. Good times had by all!

Re: Dad's 1979 GMC Heavy Half Transformation
I got the right door sanded and polished this evening, then put the trim, door handle, and mirror on. Then I spent a little time freshening up the fender emblems with some paint. I'm hoping this evening to get the fenders polished up, and possibly installed if I can get the ac box cleaned up, and installed.

Re: Dad's 1979 GMC Heavy Half Transformation
I got the inside heater box cleaned up, and installed a new heater core, cleaned up the outside heater box, and installed a new evaporator coil, after that I installed them. Kind of a challenge by yourself!

Re: Dad's 1979 GMC Heavy Half Transformation
Progress has been pretty slow for a couple weeks, how dare "life" interfere with truck progress!
