Re: my 65 fleetside build
the color is on 03 and up gm trucks, not sure what its called, my buddy owns his own body shop and is supplying my materials and he is the one who sprayed my clear, i chickened out at the last minute. who knows i might get up the nerve to attempt it on my fenders which are getting badly neglected right now. thanks alan i wish i could afford to bring it to you i know it would turn out a whole lot better.

Re: my 65 fleetside build
WOW, I love the color. mine is going to be real close to that color also!! I been trying to finish the bottom of my cab putting in new cab supports. I dont know how you can get so much done with the heat. Its been around 100 degrees here in NC everyday. 104 degrees here today. Looks great, making me itch to go down to the shop and work on mine. I cant wait to see it finished because I think our trucks are going to be twins. Keep up the good work!!

Re: my 65 fleetside build
its been almost unbearable here as well, uper 90s everyday, i wish i had air in the shop so i could work longer. we need to come home from work and go straight to bed then get up at around midnight and go work on our trucks while its a little cooler, i might get something done that way.
