Re: 1979 GMC Sierra Classic c3500 Dually
I’ve been plugging away getting some little stuff done on the truck. As usual I am pretty slow with getting anything done but I finally have a hood, grille and bezels on the truck. I also replaced all the lenses on the truck and fought a couple grounds for the cab lights but got that squared away as well. I fought getting the hood lined up and ran into several issues with the WAMrods that replaced the hood hinge springs. Most of that was mistakes made on my part. Overall once I worked through the issues I’m really happy with their product. The gas shocks are nice and smooth. Check them out if you want an upgrade for the 73-80 hood hinges. I do not recommend buying the hinges from classic parts though. They are pretty flimsy compared to a GM set. Overall I’m happy with progress. Next thing is getting a bad brake light switch fixed and polishing around on the truck. Here’s a few pictures of my progress.
