Re: My '70 LWB SS sees daylight

I really like the truck as it is. It's good to let ideas for change to marinade a while. Better changes (or none) will come as a result. If you aren't stuck on keeping it original there are all the Chevy car dog dish caps since the early-'50s you can find to pop on. IMO, there are several years much better looking than originals. Some aren't as bulky and make the dish look deeper. It's an old truck tradition to swap car caps but. I have '54s on my '67 SWB project rollers now. Nice clean looking caps with bowtie in blue crest. My first SWB was a '71 and I put '55s on wide steelies, the caps with bowties around the outer circle. There isn't a Chevy car cap I don't like. They are all nice if you ask me. And you can often find those for cheaper.
