New member and new square body owner from Livermore ca

New member and new square body owner from Livermore,Ca. Hey guys I just picked up a 1984 Silverado c30 crew cab out of the high desert of LA. The truck is a 48k original survivor and has had one really nicely done repaint in its life. The truck is completely unmolested, i have done some serious buffing and clean up on the exterior. The truck just needed to be wool paced and foam paced twice to breath life back into the paint.

Buffing this truck is like buffing a house.

I will post a photo of everything else I did soon. Thanks for all the welcomes, this is my first sort of vintage truck. I hope to help anyone on here and learn from all of you as well. I bought this truck to better represent my line of work which is auto restoration plus, I got burned out with my 07 duramax dually.
