71 Upkeep

Hello all,

I just inherited a 71 Chevy c10 and I am trying to figure out where to start with this project. I am 23 with a limited budget but I am in love with this truck. I don't know much about it, but I am learning something new every day that I drive it.

The first question I have is whether it is a mistake to remove the black trim on the white body. Ill post pictures soon. Thanks!

Re: 71 Upkeep

Anyone know where I could find a 5 lug rally center cap? One of mine broke off somewhere on I-5 S... I am also looking for a way to try out a new color of lettering on my tailgate. My truck is white and I want to inlay some blue lettering. Maybe start with tape that can be removed if I dont like it?
