Default My other Toy

Keeping it in the GM family here is a shot of my restoration project of the past five years.

1981 Silverado I just completed the interior a few months back.

Oh yeah, the gas sucking 6 cyl Jeep in the back ground was replaced with my Monte.

I like the blue it looks real good, did you have to do any body work on it?

Base coat GM Blue with a couple of clear coats. Not much body work considering 190K miles. I went back with a 350 four bolt opting to trash the 305. I did get into some detail work shown in the attachments.

Looks in great shape. Usually the bed would be badly rusted out by now.
