Thanks for the support. I have followed your build also. You did a excellent job with your 70 GMC. Are there any plans for the 97?

Re: Project ''Second Time Around''

This weekend I took the front end apart as far as I could. At least I can see what I'm looking at. The driver side still needs to come off. Next week I'll work on getting the bed off to reach the fuel pump. It will be nice to be able the move it around.



















Not much yet, but it's a start.

Re: Project ''Second Time Around''

I also did some work to my 98 DD. I prefer the Chevy to the GMC. I took the old 93 chrome grill and air-dam that I saved from this project. I also smoked the signal lights wile I was at it. When it worms up I want to paint the bumper and grill black.

Re: Project ''Second Time Around''

Not much to report this week. My father in-law has been having heart trouble and was hospitalized for a week so I spent time with him. They have no idea what caused his heart problems, but he's been released and is now recovering at home.

I did manage to get the bed cover and tailgate off. I got the bed unbolted and filler neck and wiring harness. I didn't have anyone to help me lift it off today, so I'm going to have to wait until next weekend because I'll be going out of town for work this week; anybody live in Rock Springs Wyoming?









Here are some better shots of my air tank. Air brushing is really fun.
