Those are nice. I really like that radiator close out panel.

Did you get the door panels too?

They are high quality and they fit. That's why I run all there stuff there glass work is second to none. Just my two cents. I cant wait to see them finished in this truck

Awesome stuff Jim. Just a shame you have to have double secret clearance codes to get anything from them. Glad you got it, they will look fantastic on your truck!

I will be the dealer on the board here in a few weeks. I can get any of there parts for you quick. You wont need a double secret clearance code if you deal with me. I think Jim will tell you that. Anyway its going to look good in his truck.

That's great to hear Eric. I have always been a fan of the work Pasqual and his crew do. It's unfortunately a well known problem in getting info and parts. If you can solve that, everyone on the board can benefit from the vision and quality Marquez has. I'm just jealous. Jim has pulled out to a big lead over me in getting projects done! Keep up the great work guys.

Man i'm still debating a white bottom....under the moldings.....85% sure i will go solid but i have been known to change!! lol

rwade 02-23-2015 12:34 AM

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"
 
How about a solid red with moldings and a white top? I completely understand about changing your mind, I do at least 3 times a day on most truck decisions. I got faith in you.
