project dads old 84
« on: June 30, 2013, 03:59:46 am »
my dads old 84 gmc high Sierra... we were getting it ready for paint right before he passed away my dad was a auto painter. This was our work truck me and him used it for plowing and moving things from here to there. All and all its a straight truck plans for the outside are to put a cowl hood, o.e front grille and fill in the tailgate and relocate the handle my dad already picked out the color and got the paint its going to be the new ford tuxedo black. As for the interior it needs the normal dash pad, carpet,  speaker upgrades.
Any input would be great.. thanks in advance

     As Irish said, a great way to remember your dad.
#1: The easiest and most obvious solution to any problem is 99% of the time correct.
#2: There is no such thing as impossible, it just takes longer.
