Re: finally getting the front clip on
You guys gotta see Tom's Jimmy in person - it's immaculate. Picture's do not do it justice. I must have spend about 15 minutes just laying under it drooling!

Re: finally getting the front clip on

You seem somewhat perplexed in the photo, just wondering if you had problems...im at that stage[/QUOTE] They actually fit pretty well ( with a little judicious trimming at the top to match the curve of the doors a little better). I got them from Wes at Clasic Heartbeat. You know its funny because I looked at those things for weeks before I put the doors on thinking, 'should I leave these on or not'. Now that the doors are on Im glad I left them on the truck. They do look good back in the jamb when you open the doors. |

Re: finally getting the front clip on
Heres a pic from last week after I got the glass in and the top on. A buddy of mine came by and wanted a picture of it. Im going to do a mild tint on the windows so I went with clear glass.
Im still trying to get my digital MSD box fixed, if I cant I guess Ill have to by ANOTHER one... sigh. Then I can start her up. Also starting to work on the interior... going mostly stock there. |

Re: finally getting the front clip on
