3/4 tons are cool too, that looks like a VERY nice and complete restore, great lookng job !!!

67ChevyRedneck · 11-02-2006, 11:59 AM

That is NICE!!! Great job. I'm looking into getting the exact same grant wheel as the one you have. Do you like it? Wish you stuck with a stock one?

**KSCHEVYUP** · 11-02-2006, 12:35 PM

That's a good looking truck! Just out of curiosity; is the raised panel Chevy emblem on the front of bed something you fabricated; or something that is sold commercially? Either way; it's Way Cool!

jimmydean · 11-02-2006, 12:47 PM

Man, that's a nice truck right there! Most of the 3/4 tons around here have at least one brown door

*72CSTC5* · 11-02-2006, 01:09 PM

Damn nice job there.

Texasdeere · 11-02-2006, 03:39 PM

Very, Very Nice! The C and K20s are my favorites. I am thinking about running the same steering wheel on my project truck.

Deuce · 11-02-2006, 03:50 PM

You guys did a really nice job!!!
I'm sure it's the detail that won you 1st place.

72swbcamo · 11-02-2006, 05:07 PM

Green you did a beautiful job on your truck. I love it. There's nothing like a stock truck. Don't mean to be a wiseguy but your differential cover is on upsidedown. If you filled your differental up to the filler hole you are going to have leaky axle seals for sure.

lowrollin70gmc · 11-02-2006, 07:31 PM

Built not bought. The way I like 'em.

Sweet truck.

HeavyD · 11-02-2006, 08:12 PM

Beautiful truck.

qksilver · 11-02-2006, 09:49 PM

Sweet
