Re: 1 Owner 1976 SWB

I'd like to say that this is one of the cleanest street driven trucks I've seen in person. Very well put together with good quality parts and a lot of time well spent.. It's gonna put a huge smile on my face to see that thing cruising down the road next show season! Awesome job JWall.

Looks awesome. Your really stepping this truck up several notches, and it was already really nice.

Re: 1 Owner 1976 SWB

I got my Optima Battery & Cover Painted black & installed.
Also, installed new longer cables to be able to install the battery backwards to hide the cables and connections.

I just need to find an Optima style battery hold down.

Re: 1 Owner 1976 SWB

And me & Low1Ton made some billet door panel inserts out of some old billet pieces I had laying around.

I've been wanting something on the door panels to tie them together with the dash & not look so plain.
