Re: Did I missFront end Friday

Here are some shots of how the front end of my truck has looked since I bought it last August. A previous owner cut out the middle bar of the original grille and zip tied most of a 71-72 grille insert in there. I replaced it with another original, and ran it with primer for a couple of months before dropping it off at a body shop to be painted. Then I drove around for a couple more months without a grille. I'm almost done reinstalling the freshly painted panels I got back from the body shop recently. It's finally starting to look complete.

Most kids don't get the 67/68 subtle differences.

Hey, thanks! I’ve been asked why I didn’t paint my wheels white like the face & cab or green like the body. While I agree those choices would make for better aesthetics, the right answer is “because they came from the factory in silver.”

When I needed new wheels in 2000, I stayed with White.
But the silver looks good. The PO advised me to hit them with aluminum spraypaint every year, [and the step-bumper.]
