Thanks everyone for your input! So sorry I have been sporadic as I used to be quite active here. I took the 59 to the Bro-in-Laws house 2 Saturdays ago. He will be pulling her apart and sending her off for bead-blasting. I finally have a job with steady hours and pretty good pay so I can finally move on the project that has had too many delays and poor shortcuts. I put a video up last week asking my YouTube subscribers to "vote" which color I should paint the truck. I took a few images from here on the site (Cal58GMC, 55ChevyPU, etc). Hope you guys don't mind!
More progress updates as they happen!
