Re: What did you do to your truck today!

Got some small stuff from LMC to deliver to painter and Bro, Lee.

I've pretty much decided to go with the 67-70 bumper painted to match the truck,
and to move the turn/parking lights inside of the grill. (Here it is in primer with the "early" bumper P-Shopped)
So, I ordered "paintable" bolts.

Is the reason LMC sends paintable bolts with a bunch of writing on 'em because they are period "correct"?

For me, since I'm going to the trouble to paint the bumper, I might as well have the bolts clean, too. So, I went off to the grinder with one and
shot it with a little paint to check it out.

Small thing, for sure. But here I'll be. At the grinder/wire wheel for a while. After I'm done cleaning them up, I'll leave the rest of the bolts
"raw" for Lee.
