Re: "All Out Original 72"
WOW!!! Your attention to detail and originality is great. You are truly an inspiration to all of us who think that GM did it right the first time! These trucks are (in my opinion) perfect from the factory. This is the same thing that I am slooooooooooooooowly trying to do to my '69 C10. Can't wait to see it all come together. Keep us posted.

Re: "All Out Original 72"
Tx really has no idea how bad I really am over this kinda stuff! After I tighten a bolt or nutt, or install a part, I "touch-up" ALL, the threads, bolt heads, etc. with my tiny paint brushes. I pinstripe, and airbrush a little, so I have lots of materials to do an awesome job of touching up! So do you really want to join.....LOLOL !

Re: "All Out Original 72"
Thank You very much! I am very proud of the way this one is turning out, the NOS parts have made a huge difference, and it makes me all warm inside being able to install them lol!

Re: "All Out Original 72"
Weather was really nice here today, so I pushed the truck out and snapped a few photo's, and cleaned the shop up some. The doors are almost finished, except for the ventshades, more door edge guards, and touch-up painting. One of the photo's shows my dualie in the background, to me, that's deep!

Re: "All Out Original 72"
I will show some here in TN. if I can get it finished. I do not know the dates of the other shows you mentioned, I'd like too! The bed is taking alot of time, and I need an exhaust heat riser! That thing has really got me held up! I have the fenders done, working on the 3rd hood, ugh! Cowl is almost finished. I still have a long way to go....
