Re: 59' GMC long bed
Looks awesome!
I am getting ready to do the suspension on my 57 L/B, can you please list a breakdown on the parts you ordered to have this done? and where you ordered them from?? I am leaning towards Porterbuilt as well. Thanks. |

It was good meeting you Dave !!!!
Just went out to crank the '59 it started up with no hard start, and you could press the gas.. Looks like H-A's and Geralds old truck is on it way.. Trucks about to be in a News article so stay tuned !!! Pretty excited for all of this to happen

Re: 59' GMC long bed
Gotta call from a friend this morning with an invite to a local show. Bring the truck they said. What the heck it's on a trailer so we drug it down there. Was unable to take it off the trailer but pulled Best Unfinished at the Hillbilly Hotrodders show in Denver NC.
