thanks alot that looks good

as for the grille as far as i know he just painted it

72c10step · 06-04-2004, 04:35 PM

What did you do for front turn signals, stock ones behind the grille, or aftermarket? I want to do the same thing with my front end (69-70 front bumper), but I want to smooth off the bolt heads like they did on the Trucks! show.

The flags in the inst cluster where the tach goes is a neat trick. Opens the options for other logos

Sweet wheels! Thanks for the ideas on the turn signals!

Truck looks awesome. After looking at your front emblem options, I think that I would lose it altogether IMHO.
