Re: finally drove my 76 after 2 years of work
Is that a NOS tailgate band, or refurbed? I can't imagine it being original, looks new.

You sure did a good job getting the original finish back out of it.

Re: finally drove my 76 after 2 years of work
THAT is what you call a restoration. Homerun, well done!

To the OP, great job on your truck. This thing gives me inspiration that a clean restoration is still possible. ![]() ![]() |

Re: finally drove my 76 after 2 years of work
Do you recall where you got that sticker on the air cleaner from? I've been looking for that one for a while amd can't track it down. "GMC Invader 350 four barrel"

Re: finally drove my 76 after 2 years of work

Re: finally drove my 76 after 2 years of work
Hey, this truck is super nice! I really like that blue color you picked! Do you have a color code/name for that blue? I think I would like to paint my K5 Blazer that color... Thanks

Re: finally drove my 76 after 2 years of work
If you told me that was an original truck, that never saw the light of day, I would believe you. Phenomenal restoration.

Re: finally drove my 76 after 2 years of work
Great looking truck!!
How do you like the Procar seats? I have em in my K5 and think they are a GREAT value per dollar for new buckets, but only have a few hours of windshield time in them. very comfy. I plan on using similar seats in some of my other projects... Fine example of a GMC Edit: you already commented on the seats, so nvr mind lol |
