Looks awesome, if you can have that completely reassembled and running in 2 weeks I'd be even more impressed, that is a lot of work. I am in my 4th truck, 3rd with a complete color change. Have fun, it sure is worth it.

meathead95 · 05-31-2004, 03:12 PM

The truck looks great but I was wondering is it supposed to have that white stripe under the windshield? I have never noticed that before.

*dtlilly* · 05-31-2004, 08:01 PM

68GMC, that truck looks great, as someone else said, it looks like it is being done right.

You asked if anyone else is getting paint done. Yep, my truck was started in April (new rockers, corners, paint). Not a pro job, but better than I could do myself. I'm definately getting what I paid for though, cheep job at a cheep price. Here is what the truck looked like right before I left Memphis.

1968GMC · 05-31-2004, 09:13 PM

thank you for the nice complement. I am verry exited. Im getting it deliverd tomorrow I cant waite to see the neighbours reactions when they see it. juju its a bright yellow. I like the fact that there no to many 2 tone stepside.Meathead the white line under the windshield is my mistake. I dont think it should be there. I hope the windshield rubber will cover it allong the whiper cvr. Blews85 I got a blazer gaz tank that will go under the bed.68plus... your jealous,jealous,jealous Im broke,broke,broke.Ice 68 I used acrilic with 10% clear.Thanks aggain I posted the whole truck on a diffrent tread, go and check it out.
