Re: The Snortin' bull
So when I got the GMC it came with some wood possibly for the bed,It basically was a farm pack.I made it work though .This again is no resto. Started putting the bed wood in to stay.

Re: The Snortin' bull
In thinking it would be nice to access the Accuair and compressor's easy from the bed I made the floor to be like a cassette to slide out and back.The frt bed panel and tailgate I sprayed some color on to match better overall scheme.

Re: The Snortin' bull
Just read through the whole thread and I have to say this is one of my favourite trucks on the forum. The style and look of it is awesome, and in my opinion the 60-61 gmc hood is the best. Keep up the great work and be sure to do lots of updates

Re: The Snortin' bull
So as noted in past I scavenged this little gem.I thought a little extra stowage room could alway's be nice. It is locked down though easily taken out.

Re: The Snortin' bull
After week's of considering to put on a rear bumper or not .I have chosen to do so.A buddy of mine was at the Portland swap and scored a new 60-63 rear bumper for a song.Now to fab up some way to mount it.

Re: The Snortin' bull
I like that.
More importantly, the blue inside the bumper has me thinking...... I did paint the insides of both my bumpers in silver, but red may now become an option. That looks great.

Re: The Snortin' bull
Thanks. Even though the truck is to look like an old farm rig it's still got to have details being a hotrod.
