But Dang!

Man I'm likin' that original green!

Probably my favorite color on them old trucks.

You got 'er lookin good! so far, keep it up and take plenty of pics.

But you can hide that logbook, I don't need to be reminded that 4.95 gallons of gas was $5.25 only 15 years ago

Yeah, I'd like to see some updates too if you're still toying with her. If not, still would be good to know.

retodd7711 · 11-14-2011, 11:36 AM

Yep. I.still got the ol' greeny. Truck runs a lot better with the Holley Carb.
Night and day difference. I had to do a lot of brake work this year

Really cool truck! Loved it with the original hubcaps. It looked like a time capsule. It's nice to see those long steppers show up in original condition. You did great for the price you paid.

Looks great, I have a 62 GMC as well, I'm a bit new to restoring a GMC so if there's any important advice you have, let me know!
