Re: 67 GMC super custom build
So I used a different reflector back with my t3 headlights and wow what a difference. These now have a very noticeable beam pattern cut off on low beam and high beam. Truck is 6 feet away from the cardboard and not 100% adjusted. I looked into the retrobright bulbs but I did not like the look of the plastic lenses. All my newer vehicles have yellowed. Here's a Picture with the low beams and 1 with fog and low beams. Lighting Pictures never show up well for some reason but here's the best my phone will do.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
Looks decent from here!
Ya know my 2012 silverado headlamps have always been a little high. I get flashed a lot without the high beams even being on. I finally got the manual out to see about how to adjust them (I couldn’t figure out how on my own). The manual says to call your dealer. Omg! Seriously!?! So I had them adjust them. Made me appreciate how awesome these old pickups are.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
Yeah these trucks were made for service in the field need be. Modern vehicle mechanic repairs need to be hauled into the shop for a lot of things. That takes the fun out of them.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
Next on my list was my horns. They weren't working so I took them apart and cleaned them up. Now they work as they should. I'll have to get them painted yet. I may see if there is anyone who makes the stock style rivits so you can't tell they were opened.
