Re: 64 GMC Re-assembly
Man I can almost smell that paint. That’s the same color I painted mine the first time.

Re: 64 GMC Re-assembly
Did you do anything to get the rams horn manifolds to fit (passenger side) with the engine in the rear two holes?

Re: 64 GMC Re-assembly
got the doors mounted. Also installed the vent windows. Vent windows were purchased from Roger Koop, a member of this forum selling on http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=830918.
I need to align the doors a bit better. |
