Re: Finally "Silvers" build thread!! ('78 swb 2wd silverado)
Looking good man, that's a lot new & NOS parts!!! Do you really like the 79 headlight bezels better than the 73-78 style??? I had a 79 prior to my 77 & really never liked the way the bezel goes down around the parking light. Just curious as you could have changed it since you were replacing it anyhow.
