PHOTO THREAD - The Little Details You Love. Whether You Used Them or Not
 

As the title says, even if you didn't use them post the pics because others of us may be inspired by them.

Here's a few of my faves.

I like the motorcycle signals used as reverse lights to fill the spaces next to the stock license holder on the TF trucks. Mine are going in soon.

The CHEVROLET valve cover script welded into the cab is way cool too. I'd have done it if I'd seen it before my truck was too far along.

The storage in the door panel is neat. Might be a catch all but if you keep it organized it would be helpful. I like the stainless in the step except it'll get scratched just like the paint would

I'll post more as I find them in my photo stash. Maybe this will become a "sticky"

Dan, cool ideal, I'll check my stash...Jim

Thanks Jim.

I was organizing some car/truck photos the other night and realized I'd taken a lot that were only of details I liked and wanted to remember.

Here's another I saw on a TF truck at a car show in Lake Tahoe a few years ago. It's a way to failsafe lock the hood on our trucks using readily available desk or cabinet drawer locks:

Mark,

Can't tell you how much I like the '55 car badge on the otherwise plain tailgate. A very nice touch....and one I've seen on no other Task Force....so far! lol

Hmmm, now WHAT is it that first pictures reminds me of? I know it’s something.

Is the above pic the original inspiration for Madonna's cone-bra that made me feel funny as a young man?

Several little details I like about this truck: The Mini-Cooper-esq Exhaust, the frenched taillights, and I like the door handles too. Looks like a '90s bed maybe?

Thanks Dan, I just shot soda out of my nose...

No extra charge for the entertainment!:lol:

Snow cones! (...and the fact that I flunked that Rorschack ink blot test the psychiatrist gave me years ago.)

Re: PHOTO THREAD - The Little Details You Love. Whether You Used Them or Not
 

I really like the script in the cab.
I just may try that

Re: PHOTO THREAD - The Little Details You Love. Whether You Used Them or Not
 

Dan, those door pockets are trick. I’m getting my door panels done with those, great idea thanks for sharing.

John, you're welcome.

Yeah, I'm thinking of doing the door panel pockets too. There is so little storage in these trucks especially if you put Vintage Air in them like I did. The glove box is so small now the only thing that will fit in them is...well, gloves! ha ha!

I might add 1 or 2 dividers in them though to keep stuff from sliding around. I'll usually carry a couple folded microfiber towels, my little dog's leash, sunglasses, etc.

TOP: Kick panel speaker grilles with machined aluminum "bullets".
Middle: Hand fabbed tach mount
Bottom: To match the holes in the steering wheel spokes, the door handles, window cranks, brake pedal and throttle pedal are all Lokar "Lakester" series

Re: PHOTO THREAD - The Little Details You Love. Whether You Used Them or Not
 

Top: Impala fender badge on lower right dash

Middle: Chrome "bullets" in center of front turn signal lenses

Bottom: The gold clips holding the loom are commonly used on semi trailers for hose tender springs but they are an easy way to secure stuff to the frame without drilling. In the photo it secures the wiring loom, on the passenger side they secure the fuel line along the frame.

Went to a car show locally and saw this on a vent window, it was a VW bus, but it was pretty trick.

Re: PHOTO THREAD - The Little Details You Love. Whether You Used Them or Not
 

While i love to look at these wonderful pics i know Perfection and I will never be in the same room,

Re: PHOTO THREAD - The Little Details You Love. Whether You Used Them or Not
 

Saw this at a local show over the Labor Day Weekend. Guy added the hood emblem to the radiator support, so it showed up when he had the hood open showing off all his chrome.

What a bunch of awesome touches these "little" things make!

Re: PHOTO THREAD - The Little Details You Love. Whether You Used Them or Not
 

Those are cool. Where can you get them?

Re: PHOTO THREAD - The Little Details You Love. Whether You Used Them or Not
 

I liked them also, when I looked them up they only came with the kit.:no:

Re: PHOTO THREAD - The Little Details You Love. Whether You Used Them or Not
 

Nice stuff, guys. I like nearly all of them!

Re: PHOTO THREAD - The Little Details You Love. Whether You Used Them or Not
 

Here they are in a kit for a '58-'62 Corvette, but I'd call Eckler's. Maybe they'll sell them separately.

They are commonly used on semi trailers so any good HD parts supplier should have them. Here's a link to some sources if you like to buy online...
