haven't posted anything on this site for several years. not since the square body i had. anyhow..this is my recently "finished" 93 GMC. I bought it from the original owner 4 years ago. it was never intended to be a serious project, however within the 1st year i did do a few things such as lower it and go through the brakes and replace the exhaust with a single to a dual setup. in may of 2020 i set out to replace the front fenders and weld in a new set of rockers and cab corners. then possibly repaint it in a shade of satin close to the original color with some flames just for fun. the original plan was to have it back on the road in 6-8 weeks. well...once i go started i very quickly realized i needed to do much more than that to do things "right". long story slightly shorter i ended up with a frame off restoration of sorts. and the cool flame job i had in mind evolved into something a bit more budget friendly. you my be able to see in the before pic the hood and top and tops of the doors had peeling/missing paint and primer. so considering that and the replacement fenders didnt match i decided to have a bit of fun with bare metal. the lighter shade of blue is a rattle can rustolium color, and the dark blue is what remains of the original paint.
there were a lot of unexpected issues (and expenses) along the way. a six month winter delay, and working 60 hours a week all added up 18 months to get her back on the road.
