Re: Two is easier then one 1965 GMC S/W/BB build
looks great! Way more involved than what I'm doing, but hopefully I can get some inspiration!

Frame is home
![]() Powder coating looks very good, can't be happier with the color and the finish. Just enough gloss to shine but not look soaking wet. |

This must be how it feels to take your kid to the first day of Kindergarten.
We dropped Greg's frame off at the powdercoater yesterday, it is out of our custody for the first time since we started the build. (I kind of miss it) |

Re: Two is easier then one 1965 GMC S/W/BB build
With the chassis squared away we have no choice but to get started on the part I have been dreading, The body work. The floor is in pretty bad shape. We could have pieced in some replacement panels but Greg is a "No half measures" kind of guy so we will be replacing the entire floor and firewall/transmission hump. this requires us to build a framework inside the cab that will allow us to cut out the whole bottom of the cab and still be able to rotisserie it.
So Greg and I (Mostly Greg) built and installed this bolt-in arraignment. By using the door strike and hinge mounts we can unbolt it and keep it for when we do my truck this summer. ![]() |

So Greg and I (Mostly Greg) built and installed this bolt-in arraignment. Attachment 1740965 Attachment 1740966 Using the door hinge bolt holes is quite ingenious, and probably perfect for keeping the cab straight and intact! And I bet that anthracite color will look amazing on the frame. I know a lot of people go with straight black (which is a great idea for simplicity and looks,) but I think the extra touch of that color will make it that much more unique! Can't wait to see how it comes out! We are making the big push south the day after tomorrow, I'll be sure to honk and waive as we pass through Salinas ![]()

Re: Two is easier then one 1965 GMC S/W/BB build
Greg went by this morning. The powder coater has a couple coats of "primer" on and is in the process of final smoothing. Promised it to us by the end of the week. If that happens it will only be 3 weeks late.
