Re: My 52 GMC Build
Yep Bob... we local guys should get together for a cold one or a Timmies. (translation for those that aren't familiar: a Tim Horton's coffee).
Your show plaque looks good. I actually went back to the beginning of your thread this morning to refresh my memory of all the good work you've done. You should be proud of all the accolades you're getting... and will get once you start getting out on the road. Good job man!

Re: My 52 GMC Build
very cool, congrats. Glad to see your hard work paying off. Just in time for the season. I was very surprised on how smooth my bagged 49' rode. I'm planning on bagging my first truck this winter cause I can't stand the static drop anymore. burnouts are wicked.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Full throttle pull from 60kmh(37mph) to 106kmh(66mph)
http://vid51.photobucket.com/albums/...ps7u2rhk0u.mp4 So I was driving it around again today all over the city. I now have over 60mi on the truck and only 2 issues both with the transmission went and talked to my trany guy. 1. It runs too warm (need more cooling) not a big deal. 2. Reverse gear slips too much. He told me a bunch of stuff to check so hope its not to bad. But if those are my only problems I'll take it. Going to my friend Joe's work tomorrow to look it over and first oil change.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Bob, your GMC looks great going down the road! Too bad you didn't cruise down to the swap meet in Rockton on sunday. I was speaking to the guys that organize the Unfinished Nationals. They tried to sell me last years t-shirt... but I think I'll wait until the new ones come out.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Your truck looks very cool, Lower!!!
Like how the pinstriping is done, the combination beween the traditional striping and scrolling looks very nice. I bet you have a lot of fun driving it at last CONGRATZ!!!
