Wow,
You could buy a winshield for that much!!!
I'm kinda partial to the clean look, myself...but that's what makes it your truck.

72-stomper, what kind of grill is that? the outer one. is it a repro? it looks extra good, almost like a deep chrome finish.

Re: Wheel opening schrome????(SS)

Thanks everyone,
The windshield is coming(dont tell your installer "no hurry", I paid for it 2 weeks ago.)
That is the chrome steel grill surround from GMC Pauls. It shines nice, but fit is not as good as the OEM anidoized aluninum original.($400+) Grill insert is OEM painted Gloss black.
Eagel alloyes. Yes.
My vision when I started building this truck was jet gloss black, loaded with chrome.(Harley look) It has chrome bed rails, grab handles, nerf bars, emblems, & the upper body side trim chromed, to come. I will keep you up to date as I progress.
Thank you for your kind words,
Mark
