but here is my crown jewel of the day. I am very proud of this, I usually screw this stuff up. The original GMC horn button lives again.

Looks great! Just like it would have been back in '71. What are the details on the truck? LWB, SWB, 1/2 ton, 3/4 ton? You have to post some pics when it is completed

It is a 71 GMC 1500 2WD LWB, It has all of the chrome, wheel covers, etc. It looked like a Sierra Grande. I am adding Tilt, pb, and a tach. Stuff that makes it more user friendly.
