Re: 1964 GMC Model 1002 build journal
Hello fellers. Took a good year and 1/2 off. The pandemic hit and I decided to build a bigger shop. I have completely outgrown my 20 by 24 shop. If you can believe it I did a cab off restoration on my 53 Chev 5 window. Even painted it in there. Never again, seems I was spending 1/2 my time moving things in and out to make room to work. My new shop is 24' by 44' with 13' high ceilings. It took me a year and a half to build it, permit process, getting through the material shortages and so on. Then the move over with tools and machinery. I'm feeling my age lately. I'm now officially starting back on the 64 GMC. Pretty stoked. One of the pics shows a sm420 hanging from the chain hoist. I lifted off the transmission jack, done packing around 150lb transmissions.
