76 Trailering Special
Well i got one side of the origional trim put on this weekend. I think it looks much better than the aftermarket stick on stuff that was on it. I also have two of the weels repainted and the center caps finished. Should be car show ready in a couple more weeks.
      Plus I started cleaning the engine bay back up for the year. Changing out a couple hoses

Re: 76 Trailering Special
Looks beautiful! Only way it'd look better, is to be in my driveway.

Re: 76 Trailering Special
Does the pickup have the trailering special emblem on the tailgate like the blazers do?

Re: 76 Trailering Special
Is that trim original GM, or aftermarket replacement?

Re: 76 Trailering Special
I dunno about all of the blue hose, but thats your tastes. On the braided over hose stuff.. in my opinion thats stuff is no good. It hides worn out hoses. If the hose starts to swell due to a weak spot you probally wont notice it when you have the hood up..
anyway, the trim looks real nice. clint
