Re: 1969 GMC Pickup
That cab is not going to want to do any burn outs now that it has had so many grinding wheels touching it. It definitely looks good guys!

Re: 1969 GMC Pickup
And here is my choice for wheels and tires, just got within this past week. Front 20x9, Rear 20x12 Ion 183's. Wrapping with 245/45/20 front and 315/35/20 rear, Nitto Invo tires! Freaking huge and beautiful! The black will be painted the same color as the truck leaving the machined spokes.

Re: 1969 GMC Pickup
Looks like things have turned around for you bobbo... body work, wheels, tires and now air ride.
Keep at it buddy; looking killer!

Re: 1969 GMC Pickup
No new updates. I have had some health issues recently. I am in the middle of a move back to Colorado Springs, Colorado.

Re: 1969 GMC Pickup
I guess an update is LONG overdue. I'm back in Missouri, for those that didn't know. Work on the truck has been slow but moving, all metal work is done, working on cleaning up the body. Air suspension is installed and operational. Bought a 454 a couple years ago and that is my next project, having it built and getting it installed. It is out of an 90ish one ton, bored 0.030.
Also purchased an 89 R2500 Suburban. Will post more pics later.
