powerline84 · 01-05-2010, 12:13 PM

Here is the last ones so far

powerline84 · 01-05-2010, 12:16 PM

I stripped the truck myslef and to the front clip off, interior out etc....saved me a lot of dough. The truck is Being Painted By Wiggins Kustoms here in Bama...some good guys. The color we decided to go with is a 2004 bmw Base called Sparkling Graphite BL and then we are spraying some Blue Pearl on top of that.. In the Dark the truck looks dark grey but with bright lights on tHe paint it is a wicked Blue Pearl. Please let me know what yah think.

Those look like your 1970 fenders, did you decide to scratch the 67 GMC front?

powerline84 · 01-05-2010, 12:45 PM

Yes SOrry Forgot to mention that lol...The truck was so solid I decided to keep it a 70 so iF any one needs any 67 Gmc Cores supports or grills I have two of them lol.

VA72C10 · 01-05-2010, 01:38 PM

Looks great man! Sorry you moved....wanted to see that thing in person. Maybe I'll catch you at a show in the south sometime. Can't wait to see it painted and in the sun

**DA68** · 01-12-2010, 02:24 PM

Truck is looking good. I give you props for bangin' out the motor swap in the backyard with no high dollar shop. That's what this hobby is about.
I was diggin' the 67 GMC grille idea, but I understand your logic on keeping the Chevy front end.
Did you use a plate or cup for your lower a arms?
If either of your GMC grilles is real nice, PM me a price. I already have a core support. Thanks.

78BO · 01-12-2010, 02:38 PM

Well you asked if we saw any resemblance, well I'd ask your dad if the mail man was a tall guy!

Truck is looking good, but what's more important, congratulations on the promotion!

**67cheby** · 01-12-2010, 02:49 PM

VA72C10 · 01-12-2010, 06:03 PM

Hey man thanx...Yah I thought it was pretty bad ass we did it in the back yard to We were on a time line and then I had to drive it from bama to DC with no probs!lol it was awesome. I have drop spindles with suicide doors bag cups....I will probably upgrade the control arms eventually or modify the stock ones...they are gonna be to ugly with the new paint job. As far as the grill I have one decent one with a couple of small dents in it...Its the one on here that i purchased...I am all about helping people out..just pm me with what you think is fair. and ill get it out to yah.
