“Government cheese” how it started vs how it’s going

[PlayingWithTBI]

I might even travel for all an OBS show.

There wasn’t enough obs at this show. The way it was done was 98- under gm truck

The event was pretty well attended by the 88-98 OBS crowd, especially on a very warm 88 degree Friday. I am really glad that our trucks are starting to be accepted by the earlier C10 and SquareBody guys at the events. Even better is seeing the vendor support that is starting to show up for our...

Came home to a nice surprise, weren’t supposed to be here till Wednesday. I guess I could pull a wheel and mock it up but still waiting on the flares. Guess I will set them in the basement next to the tires

Rears are almost done, waiting to finish passenger rear and the tire shop is mounting the tires right now. Should I paint the rear drums?? They will show through the windows. And if so black or a contrast color? I know it can look kiddo ish but rust color doesn’t really work either

I say black or "cheese" color for the drums.

The drums don’t really show through, so I’m not going to worry about it right this second. Going to finish getting these flares mounted and rims on and off the jack stands to see what this looks like
