Re: OCHRE 72 K20 Restoration
In a quest to come up with the correct blue dial hubs for the build, I came across a NOS set of hubs with NOS bolts. They didn't come with dials, so I was able to find a couple sets of clean used dials to restore. In the process of collecting parts for the hubs, I ended up with one extra set of blue dial hubs I ended up restoring. I had the hubs re-chromed, plated the bolts myself, etc. The restored hubs actually turned out better than the NOS ones. The factory chrome wasn't the best quality and had minor flaws, but I ended up using the NOS set anyway. For now, I'll save the restored set for a future build. The hubs that come on the truck were in decent shape, but scarred up and had the yellow dials.
