Bringing history back to life 🎨

This 1946 GMC pickup truck just went through a full ground-up restoration in our shop — and this video captures one of the most satisfying part of the process: the paint.

From bare metal to a flawless finish, every inch of this classic was carefully prepped, repaired, and refinished to honor its original character while giving it a fresh new life.

There’s nothing like seeing decades of wear disappear under a perfect coat of paint.

Stay tuned for more from this build — including final assembly and the finished reveal.

Got a 1949 Chevy 3100 pickup in last week for restoration. Its getting a lot of new sheet metal and was sent out to be chemically dipped to strip off all the old paint and rust. It was then sent for a powder coat to have the metal sealed off. Of course now that all the damage can be seen we have to replace the rust damage. Good thing is they make almost all the panels still for these trucks.
