My son's girlfriend needed a ride in our high school homecoming parade and on Wednesday last week we found out that we could not use my father in law's Corvette. Apparently it is made out of some special material where if it gets rained on it will melt or something. I have no idea how he washes it??? Anywhoooo.... She wanted to use the Squarebody. She has pretty good taste. Of course my truck was no where near presentable. I had to work two Jobs on Thursday so that left me with Friday to get it ready for a 5:30 parade. I took the day off work, bought a few cans of black primer and got to work.
I just needed it to be a few less colors and have no more bare metal and scaly rust on the bottom of the doors.
It didn't turn out too bad.
A couple shots from the parade.
This was the first time it has been out of the shop in quite a while and the first time driving it with the new wheels. I really need to get the hubs machined. With the way the tires swing vs pivot when turning they rub pretty bad. Other than that it looked pretty good and got a lot of compliments.
