Wow...seeing the full restorations makes me feel like I've cheated in keeping the original sheet metal on mine. Good stuff!

Re: Before and After ... Lets see your trucks transformation.
My 1968 C20 50th anniversary Custom Camper. Not much to look at at the moment, bought her a few months ago and working on getting her to daily driver status. Before photos, front coil springs torched and rear leaf springs had leaves taken out to drop her. She rode horrible so I replaced the coil springs and rear leaf springs to factory specs, and new tires.
