trim really brings out the upper body line nicely.

I say leave it off unless you plan to two-tone it...

Blue Beard · 01-11-2004, 12:01 PM

Josh,

glad you posted the pic of the black one.

almost a twin to mine. And I always wanted to see what it would look like with ralleys on it...........

**Canadian694x4** · 01-11-2004, 03:35 PM

Way it sits now no upper but as said before use adhesive strips as opposed to drilling if you do go ahead with it...

Baradium · 01-11-2004, 03:41 PM

Would have to see how it'd look with the white paint, never seen the dark green two tone. Closest I've seen is our '70 with light green two tone... supposed to have upper and lower trim....

EDIT: I need another one of that style hubcaps if anyone has some... that or a full set would be nice too... pay attention to the blue bowtie in the center.

Also, the "drop" that you may notice is due to the load in the back, I believe in that picture it's sitting about like a 2/4 drop.

Stock sized tires, HD suspension with factory overloads... well established on the overloads in that pic.

well looks like the no's have so far

dinnut · 01-12-2004, 12:55 AM

black and white.... (i know your truck is green...) but it is close to what you want to to do

dinnut · 01-12-2004, 12:56 AM

without 2 tone

ROAD DOG · 01-12-2004, 01:00 AM

I would say no more trim. The secound pic you posted proved it.
Your rig is tip top. But who's to say, whats to much????

Blue Beard · 01-12-2004, 01:07 AM

fast71 · 01-12-2004, 01:19 AM
