Boise69 - The Beginning Of My Re-store. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Well here she is. Before shots of a mild re-store for the winter. I do plan to drive her as I re-store her, because she is supposed to be my winter daily driver...

First - Replace rockers and floors and possibly cab corners.
Second - I got to re-seal this engine, she leaks way too much.
Third - New wire harness
Fourth - New wood in bed
Fifth - New paint
Sixth - New cab rubber everywhere.

I'll cronicle it as I go. WISH ME LUCK

Yes, i'm partial to light green. I may have the doors painted all green and just the cab top white. I think its a factory green but not sure. but i like it.
