Cool, I checked it out a little without getting to close...didn't want the owner to come out and smack me...lol. It is going to be nice when you get it finished, at least you are driving it. I would like to come check it out sometime.

GATORBUILT '59 · 01-03-2008, 08:56 AM

Caveman49 · 01-03-2008, 03:35 PM

Looking good Gator, what are you going to shoot it with, and color?

GATORBUILT '59 · 01-03-2008, 03:50 PM

I plan on tilting the cab on its back and spraying the underside and and firewall gloss black since I plan on driving it a lot. The primer/sealer is a Dupont product, and so will be the paint. I have been looking closely at the mid blue that was used on the mid 90s Suburbans and Tahoes.

entourageguy · 01-04-2008, 05:43 PM

Looking good.

Nice air cleaner.
