Re: 55 2nd serie GMC

VERY NICE! Man I want to paint mine so bad...The silver sets off the green and keeps it from looking like "too much"...

Re: 55 2nd serie GMC

nice job on the finishing touches Jean Marc. That flip forward hood looks fantastic .The pinstripe is really going to makes this paint combo POP.

Re: 55 2nd serie GMC

Thanks guys for all the nice words.The outside is pretty well done except for the wheels,I'm looking for a different style Wheels these S10 Wheels don't really fit with the rest of the truck. The truck is out to the upholstery shop right now.

Well you can have them, they are brand new, I'm not going to used those rims i have a new set coming, I'm using the tires for the new rims. These are Chevy S10 extreme wheels nothing fancy and they are not that expensive. I'm getting these instead .
