Re: Bronx -57 GMC project

Hey Jebb. This was suppose to be a slow project over a 5 year period,but i cant stop working on her.
Got the inner axle seals last friday and got the front axle assembled.
Rolled the chassi out of the garage and put the cab and fenders on temporary.
The cab needs some rust repairs on all four corners. Where is the best place to buy replacement body parts?

Wow, I think I would pull off the road and get out of your way if I saw your truck in my rear view mirror! Looks GREAT!

Just a side note, that's a great view from your driveway!

Re: Bronx -57 GMC project

That is fantastic! The truck looks really tuff, I love those hubcaps in the middle of those huge off road tires!

I have decided to go with brothers for all my cab parts. Dwcsr got me headed in that direction.
