Re: My New Truck

I saw your truck at the show, but didn’t see you. Your truck looked really good. I was one row behind you with my trucks.

Re: My New Truck

My latest project adding a 8000 rpm tach to my FACTORY gauge cluster.

Here is the first mock up on my project.

Re: My New Truck

The "new" grill I just installed, after I did a complete rebuild and restoration on it.

I think the 75-76 grill is one of the best looking grills GM made and of course NOBODY re pops them.

Grill came out of a salvage yard and had the typical break near the hood handle (release). It looked really bad but I got it for a decent price. Chrome stripes will be added soon. I scored a really nice set of chrome stripes, off of partsvoice.com for less than 1/2 what they are going for on ebay.

Re: My New Truck

Here's what I started with on the grill. Fifthly dirty, wasps nests all over on it.
