Re: 1964 gmc 1000

Wow! You have certaintly made alot of progress. The pictures make it look like it is easy, however; I'm sure it is alot harder than it looks.

You have some metal fabrication skills for sure. Very nice welds. I like the glovebox door and shifter handle. Nice touch. I also like the flat black with the white roof.

What other plans do you have it mind?

Good luck,

Keith

Re: 1964 gmc 1000

I like your piston shifter grip. Did you buy that or make it?

I'm also thinking of upgrading to a 4 barrel. A buddy of mine has an intake just laying there seems almost a shame to waste it.

I wish I could help you with body drop answers but I'm clueless when it comes to that stuff, sorry.

Well the end result is all that matters and I for one think it's boss! I would have one like it but my truck is column shift so that would be a little weird. Maybe a BFW or something instead...
