Huck's 85 GMC shorty

[TotallyHucked]

Took a little maneuvering to get everything square. I debated tucking it like all my buddies do but decided against it. The bumper already doesn't flow with the side of the truck well and it really looks weird if you push it forward 2-3"






So I harvested some gravel pans from one of our parts trucks and threw those on. I'll make a cover that goes all the way across eventually.



Much better, just waiting on a tag bracket

That what I did. I made a single stainless 'cover' that followed the contour @ each end of the bumper.

Nice! That's exactly what I plan to do but I'll use regular sheet metal and paint it to match

I debated on what material/coating to use & decided the stainless would work as-is & could paint/coat it later if I wanted to update things.

I was initially intending to use Epoxy Satin Black on the top side w/the stainless hardware but once I was doing the final mock-up, I liked the look of the DA'd surface so I left it bare instead.
