It's "finished"!
They're never completely finished, but mine is close enough. It's a '69 C-20 with a 292, and a granny gear 4-speed. I'm 16 and this truck was like a father-son project. We bought the truck last summer from the son of the original owner who had just passed away. The truck had been parked in a field since the late 80s. My dad and i worked on it all year. Got the 292 running smoothly, rebuilt the brakes, painted it myself, got the wheels off of a week old GMC 2500HD. Its so much more fun to drive than a modern vehicle, and it definately turns more heads. Tomorrow I have to go to court because I got a ticket for no inspection sticker. I had just got plates a couple weeks before and had only driven it to get new wheels and tires, and exhaust, getting it ready for inspection. But at least the cop complimented me on the truck. Here are some before and after photos.
