Btw, love the hose holder.

I will be going with a cloth headliner, probably in a light color like the new trucks. The seats and carpet will be a dark gray.

This thing is looking good man. I'm ready to see it all painted up!

extd56 · 06-23-2008, 11:59 PM

I got the bed floor all cleaned up, amazing what 40 grit can do to paint and rust. I also got the bumpers all mocked up and my plate on too. The A/C is ready to be charged, get the frotn end lined up and back to paint the reat of the truck.

BACKYARD88 · 06-24-2008, 12:03 AM

I bet that thing in gonna look sweet once it's painted, not that it looks bad now

semperfidoordie · 06-24-2008, 12:20 AM

that is such a sweet truck...man I guess whenever I get older and have my own shop and what not I could do it with all the info you have provided.

for right now i'm young, married and broke so till the first and last things change I won't be able to do anything as sweet as this...hopefully someday

GREASEMONKEY72 · 06-24-2008, 12:21 AM

cant wait to see that whole thing painted, although it does look kinda cool with the orange stickin out there

extd56 · 06-24-2008, 12:40 AM

It will all be in paint soon as I finish up and get it to the shop. But right now I don't have to worry about chipping paint.

tkmad · 06-24-2008, 02:43 PM

Looks great! Your engine seems much further back than mine but it looks like you used the V8 mount holes. Did you do anything else differently?

extd56 · 06-24-2008, 11:29 PM

They are in the V8 position but I used 1978 motor mounts that were modified to fit the frame.

extd56 · 07-17-2008, 12:10 AM

Well the truck is next in line to get painted, should be tomorrow and I might have it back by Friday or Saturday at the latest so that I can start gettign it together. The bed will be coming off tomorrow and then it gets a once over and then lots of paint.

hgs_notes · 07-17-2008, 12:25 AM

Good luck, I hope it turns out well.

extd56 · 07-18-2008, 06:51 PM

It now has some color to the truck. Hopefully I will get it on the road soon.

extd56 · 07-18-2008, 06:54 PM

A few of the bed

68GMC454 · 07-18-2008, 08:29 PM

chrislehr · 07-19-2008, 09:27 AM

I just read all 9 pages and DAMN you do some fine work. Now get it finished, after 9 pages, I REALLY want to see it done!!

**Palf70Step** · 07-19-2008, 09:41 AM

Taht is a LOT of orange. It looks good. I don't think no one can ever say, I didn't see it.

Good Job

extd56 · 07-23-2008, 05:07 PM

I thought I was going to bring it home today but they did not like a few of the areas and decided to wet sand a few areas and it now needs to have color back on it and recleared. It should look good if I ever get it home. maybe I should go for the flat look.

extd56 · 08-26-2008, 12:04 AM

Well since I cannot do much right now without the wife getting mad as I am supposed to be resting I thought I would get the truck out so see how it ran. It seemed to do a good job, only have the windshield in at this time, more glass to follow soon. I took the truck to the muffler shop to get the rest of the exhaust done and also got the rims and tires done. I was going to put the chrome wheels on the truck but like the polished ones better.

tdave00 · 08-26-2008, 12:30 AM

Good to see the truck in some color. What kind of wheels do you have on the truck - Centerlines?

extd56 · 08-26-2008, 12:44 AM

They are a set of Eagle Alloys
