Re: 55.1 S10 swap Gypsum

thanks doowopper and tempest!

i found a good match for the factory seafoam, its beach glass krylon. needs toned down a little but i hear using a coffee stain will do it.

also got some goodies at the local meat swap. those running boards dont have a whit of rust those tread plates are just added by someone! there are at least 4 headlights and rings in the bucket. i paid for one bucket and two rings at speedway last week for the 54 and alllll that stuff on the floor cost less than my speedway bill!

Re: 55.1 S10 swap Gypsum

Any pics of this truck after you were finished? Or was this how you left it?

Great work as always Russ!

Re: 55.1 S10 swap Gypsum

i took it apart and sold the pieces! i didnt want to but my wife wanted it off the property for tgiving and so a guy in Missouri wanted the set up frame, another guy wanted the cab and clip, another the 54 bed, another the wheels.

I am building a 40x60x12 insulated shop on my extra property right now so I never have to get rid of anything i dont want to lol
