Re: '63 GMC Project
Looks nice. I was looking back at pics with the 15's. Minus the whitewall & smaller diameter, it still has relatively the same appearance. Obviously that's because the center caps didn't change, nor did the wheel color. It works though. Another one of those long beds I just can't help but like!

Re: '63 GMC Project
A few small updates and a couple more show pics...
I finally got my Porterbuilt hood hinge strut upgrade installed. It turned out to be a bit more challenging than I thought it would but it came out alright... ![]() At Good Guys last weekend my driver's door window came out of its track down inside the door. After I got it home and took it apart I found this... ![]() This is the channel that bolt to the back edge of the door on the inside. I hopped on this site and got some advice and this is how I fixed it... ![]() Now for some more pics. This is my truck with 2 of my friends' trucks at Super Summit... ![]() After the show at another friends house for a cookout.. ![]() We went to The Tilted Kilt for dinner last Saturday after leaving The Good Guys show... ![]()

Re: '63 GMC Project
Dang, it's been a long time since I've been on here!
There's just a few minor changes to the 63. I put the trim rings on my wheels and just finished installing a Street Demon 750 carb ( still needs a test drive and some minor tuning I think ). I've just been doing small things that I've been putting off for a very long time. Big changes in life though; met a girl, got a french bulldog, got engaged and had a baby ( yes in that order ![]() I will try to post more pics later on.
