Re: 55 2nd serie GMC

Laid out the outline of the two tone paint job tonight. The hood, the doors and front fenders are going to paint this weekend if the stars all lineup.

Thanks men, Hoping the cab will get paint on this weekend and then mad rush reassembly starts. We're planning a bid trip with the truck down east at the end of June, 3 weeks vacations, Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, PEI and Nova Scotia visit family and will hit a couple of car shows. Atlantic National in Moncton NB and Syracuse National in New York on the way back.
