Re: '68 GMC 1 ton dually restoration
Spent a few hours on the truck today, was able to get the dent below the window straighten out and filled. Needs a little more work in the bottom corners then it will be ready for primer. |

Re: '68 GMC 1 ton dually restoration
She's coming right along. Looks a mile long without a bed. Hard to believe that "as long as it is, it's still shorter than my truck was in the beginning".
Anyhow, it is looking great. Keep up the good work.

Re: '68 GMC 1 ton dually restoration
Well with the holiday weekend here thought it would be appropriate to spend it working on the truck. Spent most of yesterday painting a few parts. Hopefully I will be able to finish painting the rest of it within the next few weekends. |

Re: '68 GMC 1 ton dually restoration
No I'm going to leave the bumper Chrome along with the headlight bezels. Thought the chrome would stand out better if the grill was painted.
