Re: 58 GMC Project

Last Friday night I was invited to drive my truck on the ice between periods during our AA Fresno Falcons hockey game. That was really cool! I spun it sideways on the ice as I turned it around. Here are a few pictures. Sorry about the low quality pics.

Speaking of film, I took some new video of my truck today cruising down the road. I need to have my son help me edit and then I'll post it on u-tube

So now that you have it complete and looking and running very gorgeous, are you planning on taking it on any rod-runs? Any events targeted?
