Wow! Those doors are straight and solid! I'd ask at least $100 a door! Plus being original they're gonna be WAY better than any repop they've made! Nice find!

I gotta guy commin to look at doors tonite Im afraid i screwed up by not puttin a price on the adds i put out?...

I'll see what he offers and show him brothers catalog where they get 500$ per door or whatever they get lol

they are super solid my buddy is building one of these trucks maybe he wants em

picture of truck totin the weedeater i mowed around the pond while the gf fished it lol

thinking abuot going after the spots and sweet bumper tomorow I think selling 1 spot will pay for the trip+gas. Then I keep spot #2 formyself or sell it, and either keep bumper or use it for profit?..

Im going to see if I can get a scan of the template, (should've thought to make a template at guys house

there is a truck in town that i robbed the light off of, I could make a template from it I suppose

Re: "Rice Rocket'

He still ain't got that door in line! :lol: Drive that thing up here to KY and we'll line 'er up!
Cool spot lights though, if it I was going flat black or more Rat Rod I'd want one for sure. My buddy Mike up here in Louisville might be interested, you should send him a message! He's on my friends list.

put some trim on


aftermarket napa clips SUCK compared to GM ones aftermarket clips leave the trim sorta loose still..

Oh I figured out why my trim stuck out past the tailgate, it slips over the tailgate handle a lil

i rubbed mothers alum polish on it and then hit it with polsihing wheel on electric bench grinder saved my arm!

I need more tirm I have some but its REALLY beat up im just putting mostly perfect or DD quality. I have quite a bit of ratrod beater (yes i know my turck is junkier than beater but one day it'll be nice like your truck).

Napa cant get me 'large push in' trim clips

So...?

Shucked out $16 bucks for a box of trim clips today!!!

(I knew I shoulda welded up the holes lol)

I got 1. You can have it for shipping cost if you need it.

67chevy1series 07-24-2011 07:01 PM

Re: "Rice Rocket'
 
really? you cut the metal on the bed and now you cant mount the light housing? that sucks! for the trim clips i would just get them off of original trim trucks. thats what i did. your missing the drivers side tailgate trim? i might be able to get you 1 with clips of course. and the bed you have has 4 trim holes for the tailight trim peice. but 67 68 has 3 top and the lower two sides.
