Re: 91 DD build
I want the grille with the GMC letters, but do they make chrome ones instead of the red?

Re: 91 DD build
You know the good thing about your situation is that you have a place to work and family who evidently support you and your efforts to rebuild your ride. Lotsa folks, both young and old, don't have that going for them.
Are you doing ALL of that body work...sand/prime/etc.....by yourself? If so, you are developing some good talent that should be of some considerable help to you as you continue to grow and enter the "slave" zone of life. Bodywork is one of those talents that people I know have used as "tradin' material" to obtain vehicles/mechanical work/etc. Don't skimp on the expertise. Be proud of what you can do and make it work for you.

Re: 91 DD build
Yes Im doin all body work, primer, paint myself. It aint that hard, and it keeps me busy. plus its good practise considering Im going to Wallace State for auto-body when I graduate. And yes the best thing about helping my dad build the garage is I can work on my truck in it anytime I want to.

Re: 91 DD build
OK here are a few after getting the grille, bumper, and lights back on it.
That red 1967 Mustang is my dads project, almost ready for paint. And just for fun, here is a pic of me in front of the truck. Note:the white camero is gonna be my sisters first car, its a 95 V6 Auto.

Re: 91 DD build
You're gettin' there.
I'm diggin' on that '67 Mustang, too. I owned a 64 1/2 coupe w/260/automatic, a 65 Fastback 289-225/4-speed, a 65 coupe w/beige cloth bench 200-3-speed, a '65 GT coupe 289-225/automatic and a '66 coupe w/200/automatic. My '67 venture was a new Cougar 289/automatic. Being a Class of '65 graduate you gotta know my mind is all over these, just like my butt was. I like those Camaro's, too. I'd like to find a nice convertible.
