Those are the original mirrors on the truck. Listed as West Coast Jr on the glove box. I will be pulling a trailer with this so they will come in handy anyway. You can see the trailer and winch wiring wrapped around the hitch.

Grill Bowtie emblem is on order. I just couldn't put an old one in there.

Dean, I'll post some pics later this evening. The bed is off, grill is off and front bumper removed. I'm going to reuse the core support.

Hey Dean, where did you get those bumperettes on your front bumper? The ones I have seen are the tall ones that raise above the front bumper and have the rubber strip. I like yours, are those stock? Can you buys those somewhere? Your truck is beyond nice. I have the identical truck only it is a 1970 C10. Gotta love that medium olive and white combo. Thanks.

I still wish you would of sold those shorty's to me !!

Dean · 03-10-2004, 08:44 AM

Those bumper guards are either GM or GM dealer installed. I forget which. I had them rechromed. You are committed once you put them on though since you have to drill a two holes in your new bumper.........
