Re: Crushing Gumby 71 Shortbed Patina build
Yeh us VW guys have a big show coming up on the 9th called the Classic where all the cool cars make their debuts. Im bringing a new car but its not a VW, it starts with a "P" and I will post up some pics after the show. As far as Gumby goes, I am going up next week to Delmo's and I will start posting progress pics after that. I also picked up another C10 to play with while mine is away... Pics of that coming soon too.

Re: Crushing Gumby 71 Shortbed Patina build
Progress!! Del got the cab and bed off and the frame all stripped down and taken apart. Digging the look of the cab all torn down! Im also really happy to see that Gumby is as solid all over as I hoped it would be. The bed looks mint! Here are some pics I got from Del. As you can imagine, Im excited to see the changes happen.

That's a lot of work in a few days. I like that kind of progress.
