FLDBRED · 07-16-2009, 08:01 AM

One of the nice things about our year trucks is,the glove box makes a nice place to put a picture etc.Any one have any they would like to show?

You could put a picture on the hood of the truck, too... but why?

Uhhh...because it seemed like a good idea to the owner of the truck?I could list more,such as the owner has an appreciation for art to the point they`d like some on their truck or the other paint went bad and new paint wouldn`t match the rest of the truck?I won`t list any more because I believe if one puts their mind to it they could come up with their own answers.

I have a question.Why post a question like that?

i agree

What I like more about this board than the plethora of information about these trucks is the support that 99% of theboard members give one another.

Skirkpat · 07-16-2009, 06:02 PM

eseaton · 07-16-2009, 09:57 PM

This is the one Im doing this is just temp until the truck is fully painted.

72Subby · 07-16-2009, 10:00 PM

Here is what I did to mine (I posted this a while ago, it's still the best part of my unfinished truck...)

paps69 · 07-16-2009, 10:07 PM

I LOVE MARISA!!!!!!! I couldn't drive with it on there. I take it you met her!

oldblue1968chevy · 07-16-2009, 10:22 PM

lol sweeeeeetttt

72Subby · 07-16-2009, 10:42 PM

I must confess that I was not there when she autographed the picture. She does personalized autographs of official merchandise via her website for a nominal fee and donates the proceeds to cancer charities.

I selected a poster image that was the right size and gave instructions what I was doing and where she should sign - being a big surfer herself she thought it was a cool project. She sent me the signed image and I applied it to the glove box door.

By all accounts and my second hand experience, she is as nice as she is beautiful.

This is exactly what I was going to go for on my Glove Box (similar to my Avitar), until my painter flaked on me.
