We purists really appreciate the path you took to get everything authentic, the results speak for themselves. I don't think you mentioned the color, but it looks like ( GMC only ) Terrace Blue. Hopefully this restoration will start a trend to get more GMC's restored to factory standards, IMO, impossible to improve on the way they looked when leaving the assembly line.

Thank you Factorystock. Yes to the Terrace Blue. Im hoping it starts a trend like you say , would be nice to see more people into this aspect of the hobby.

Thank you Musicman . The tires made the truck imo . Yeah , had a few NAPCO comments as well , its fun to tell them its a V6 and see the confusion on their faces then a big smile when you point out the spark plugs.

No , nothing yet. Busy summer with shows swap meets etc. Only thing new is the correct battery finally got here after 5 months. Many of these company's are out of stock or backed up for certain items. Ill reach out to SMS soon in hopes to get the correct materials. One 4 inch rip in the original seat, isnt too bad and I need to fix and paint the rear floor this winter .

Im also trying to figure out this winters project . Had a lot of fun doing this one !

Hopefully you have better luck with them than people on the Bronco forum. Some have been waiting almost a year for fabric and keep getting told it will ship out in a week or two.

Our Main Street car show in Union Grove last Saturday. Had to get up pretty early to get a good spot with over 450 cars and trucks in attendance.

Southcity · 08-17-2021, 12:34 PM

Your GMC and the other nice trucks in front of those store fronts could almost have been taken in the late sixties, just need to convert the photo to black/white. I never tire of looking at your finished project, what an outstanding job!

**The Rocknrod** · 08-17-2021, 01:35 PM

Very cool pics of your rides.

**Ol Blue K20** · 08-18-2021, 06:28 AM

Very nice!

X2! Next time, place your GMC truck sign on the store front windows for a quick photo! They'll look like they just been delivered to a GMC dealership in '66

Love the color and tire\wheel choices.

I hope you don't mind but I ran the one pic through a filter, looks pretty good I think.

Ha ha , thats pretty cool !! Thank you 350tacozilla for taking the time to do that !

Thanks guys, for all the positive comments .

67JimmyMO · 08-28-2021, 08:41 AM

I can't see any of the pics that 60-66 has posted in this thread.

I see some pics that other people have posted in this thread but was wondering if anyone could tell me what might be the problem?

I have had this issue with other threads in the past and never made the effort to ask about it, but from the comments in this one I can tell this is one special rig and I would like to see it!

Thanks!

**60-66** · 08-28-2021, 12:11 PM

Heres the interior shots some of you asked for. Its not done yet. We only repainted the front portion of the interior. Originally , my plan was to "use" this truck , lol . Well , it didnt quite end up that way. Front seat has two rips. Dash, doors, front floor are done. Going to repaint wood floor and strips this winter and fix the seats.

Thank you for sharing interior shots, it looks as great as the exterior! even with the small tears in your upholstery, they are an honest representation of a truck that is used/driven. Sorry if I missed it but was curious if you had to do any work to the sub-structure of your seats (i.e. springs, braces, brackets, adjusters etc.)?

**Ol Blue K20** · 08-28-2021, 12:42 PM

Interior is beautiful! Thanks for showing it to us

Surprisingly no , but this was an extremely low mile truck to begin with. Seats are exactly as I took them out.

oem4me · 08-28-2021, 06:14 PM

Crazy nice ... and somewhat impressive. Lol.

**Captainfab** · 08-29-2021, 10:14 PM

Very nice inside and out. Is the interior painted with Nissan Sunlit Sand?
