I dig the emblems....I need a Patina'd truck, so cool!

shawno72 · 01-27-2013, 06:38 AM

Thanks butternut. One of the many joys of having a patina truck is the lack of worry when parking in parking lots. You can park right in front and no cares if it gets a ding or dent.

Getting closer. Got the brake calipers today. The one item left to get for the disc brake swap is the hard line kit.

Sweet!

shawno72 · 01-29-2013, 02:42 PM

Just walked back from the tranny shop next door and here it is apart, should be back together today or tomorrow hopefully. They are doing this in between regular customers so I have to be patient.
