Re: 68 Shorty Stepside
What's the story on the tailgate letter light? Did you make that or does someone sell them?
Thanks, Rg

Re: 68 Shorty Stepside
I made the tailgate, I cnc cut the panel and did push thru white acrylic, the red led are hooked up to the license light, so going down the road they are red.

Re: 68 Shorty Stepside
Yep, he had a 72 Cheyenne back in the 70’s said it was the best truck ever. It brings those memories back. The kid he sold it to lost a race with a train. Both ended their lives that day.
