Re: 1978 GMC Build!
That size might work. Take a piece of sheet metal and test it. Also they have a red that flipping awesome also. And a satin black.

Re: 1978 GMC Build!
Thanks sir I have been kicking the color choice around for a while. Darker would look better with the transformer auto bot center cap decals im gonna use.

Re: 1978 GMC Build!
I'm hoping to get the front end rebuilt in the coming weeks. Works busy and mother nature is not being very nice.
