71swb4x4 · 06-15-2010, 05:51 PM

Gorgeous truck. Hubcaps is my vote, but either way it will still look great.

68shortstep · 06-15-2010, 05:55 PM

On an original that's as sweet as that one appears to be, my vote is: "stay stock."

Golevi · 06-15-2010, 05:57 PM

Vey nice!!!

I love the colors...

I vote hubcaps as well...

Sorry Im goin the other way.....Slots

Mertz · 06-15-2010, 06:08 PM

Stock is good but I like the ralleys. That is what I want my truck to look like when IT is done. Love the color combination.

jgreene0717 · 06-15-2010, 06:11 PM

Very nice truck. I vote for some 15x8 rallys.

DT1 · 06-15-2010, 06:12 PM

Looks as good as new. Except the "Straight as an arrow" moldings. Gonna have to take points off for that. The stock ones were all over the place.
Nice attention to detail. I vote for stock also!
Just out of curiosity, does your passenger mirror adjust enough to use? Mine doesn't.

71c10bbsuper · 06-15-2010, 06:23 PM

thanks for the replys , the passenger mirror is in and down as far as it will go it hits on the bracket but it is just about right .

vectorit · 06-15-2010, 06:26 PM

Awesome job, your truck looks great!
I can relate to your project time line, since I have been working on my burb since 1994! (Single, job changes, nutty women, apartment car ports, storage units, lazy body shops, and slow cash flow).

I vote to keep it stock with the hub caps.

BTW, you and I decided to go with the same air cleaner.

oldblue1968chevy · 06-15-2010, 06:24 PM

i love slots but thats too stock!! ORIGINAL CAPS!!!! FTW

dfwright · 06-15-2010, 07:05 PM

That truck is beautiful -- Go stock hubcaps!!!

*67/72junkie* · 06-15-2010, 07:12 PM

Beautiful truck,Polish the slots and put them on just to be different.You already have shiny ceramic headers

Yup!

I am curious to know why you went with headers - have you had some head work done and a different cam too.

Not a criticism, I love your truck!

Sinister · 06-15-2010, 07:15 PM

Awesome job, truck is beautiful. I vote hubcaps.

GASoline71 · 06-15-2010, 07:34 PM

Beautiful truck!

Hubcaps definately.

I'm curious to the alternator bracket. I've never seen one like it. Much better than the stock floppy arm my '72 has.
