1950 GMC Project...

update...

well i "finished" my 5th year architectural degree this past Friday! hence the lack of attention to the truck. mama always said school comes first. so now i can get back to the grind.

few things done not really picture worthy...

the steering is all tight now.
the stock 3 speed selector is now an automatic selector.
the engine bay inner fenders are painted semi-gloss black.
the new distributor is on.
a bunch of other small nick nacks as well as a run to the parts store.

so tomorrow ill snap some pics of what i can and post up.

school really put a stall on this project. as well as the super slow work from Vintage Speed on the carbs and not to mention Cool Crafts mess up on the radiator. but all is good and im back on it to see it through.

Congrats from a fellow architect (ASU 78). Now comes the fun part, internship. I started college with 4 nice cars and sold one per year the last 4 to pay for tutition, etc. Good luck.

thanks man! well sorta... haha i hope not to lose my cars. luckily i already have 6 years of internship under my belt. just gotta get it signed off. oh and i paid for my classes out of pocket, that sucked! im a simple guy who hates owing anything. im honestly taking some time off from architecture and ill see where i end up in about a year. thanks again.

I can vouch for him. Ive personally seen this guys work and I can truly say that he's one bad ass fabricator. You definitely have to have vision to just create some of this stuff as you go. Well Im gonna take advantage of his skills with my projects before he lands some gig with one of these design companies. LOL just kidding
