BAGGED OG PAINT '79 GMC STEP VAN ON DETROIT STEEL WHEELS

What's up guys, welcome to United by Trucks today. We're doing something a little different. We're going to start a new little series in which we'll include some additional footage we shot while building the BTK five. and generally, while we put together other trucks doing other things, they will be short clips, basically there will be an overdub of my audio telling you a little bit about these trucks or what we are doing, so we are going to try some new things, we will use a lot of still photography, but we definitely have a lot of videos too.

I hope you continue to be productive. Stay crazy during your quarantine time. We're certainly taking ourselves seriously here at the ubt house, but let's put together some more videos. We have a lot coming for you, BT k5, we have a lot coming for the special footage, but today we want to show you a little bit about Rusty Smith, my man, who always has something really cool. projects we want to show you a little about his 1979 GMC truck, we will show you some images of how he arrives at the workshop. Yeah, maybe this is like a segment of what's in my workshop, but I'll show you a little bit.

When he arrived at the shop, he came in one day when we were about to take the body off the four-wheel drive K5 and put it on the two-wheel drive chassis, so he and his daughter came over and we took a look at it. I have some pictures of it and then we have some pictures and more information from him about the construction in particular, so I hope you like to see this. Stay with me. I'll catch up with you here at the end. Look. this thing yeah please remind me what this is again cheeks from EMC magazine this is crazy okay guys so this is the

paint

oh gee light camel with the cool AC Delco stripes and graphics still on the side. I mean, I think that's probably what makes this vehicle one of my favorite vans I've ever seen. It's got the cool patina and the weathered branding, one of the really well known pinstripers in Georgia and in our area I definitely pinched the hot seat really well, which is actually near the console and between those two front seats, you see we're done with the Iron Ace hot rod seats, cool guys, so I really hope you enjoyed taking a Look at Rusty Smith's 79 GMC truck, that thing that's cool and he'll probably do a whole video on this truck someday later, but we wanted to bring you this content right now while we can, just because we know you.
