Re: '60 GMC 4x4 Long Fenderside

Haven't been up to much lately on the truck. Life seems to keep getting in the way.

The gas tank in my truck was full of rust, and beat up pretty badly. I scored a fairly decent tank from board member Rbar. It was ugly colored, but in good shape.

The yellowish paint was peeling in some places, so we kept peeling and scraping it off.
