Re: Resto Done!! 68 GMC
Console is out of a 06 crew cab chevy. It was then covered with a red vinyl that was near perfect color to the houndstooth seat covers. thanks for the comments!

Re: Resto Done!! 68 GMC
The paint is just gloss black, but it reflects so well. My dad did an excellent job on the prep and paint on this one. Can't wait for mine to be done now.

Re: Resto Done!! 68 GMC
Nice truck, I'm really digging the crossflag emblems on the front fenders. They look right at home.

Re: Resto Done!! 68 GMC
That 71/72 grille with`68 surround looks nice in a black truck.It has a nice mix of pieces from 68-72...all GM.
Those aren`t Vette emblems.They are big block "Turbo Jet" emblems that designate the car is big block equipped.
