I think I could have this done if there's interest. -Brad Last edited by Brad54; 08/07/2012 8:59 PM. SOUTHERN FALL GABfest October 6 ~ Commerce, Georgia Details here! Never Pee on an Electric Fence.

We are going to be doing a '63 GMC K2500 long bed stepside with them, as well as, a '63 GMC K2500 4-door crew cab with the plaid valve covers.
