Re: Dads 58 isnt sitting anymore

Love both colors, blue and orange, they are also my favorites.

GM Corvette electron blue
GM HHR sunburst orange

Could you share your paint names / codes?

Greetings Richard

Truck on the right used to belong to CAL 58 GMC. New owner has just about gone through every system on it and replaced alot.

Re: Dads 58 isnt sitting anymore

Well its been a while so here is where we are with my dads 58. Shooting to have it done and 100% by June to take it to Pismo for its first just just as we did with my 57 last year. Needs interior, exhaust and the bed wood treated and installed. Got a few other odds and ends, but definitely smoother the second time around.
