That's good! I've been slacking here lately.
I need something to spur me on.

Not exactly what I had in mind, But thanks.
tantrumpipeline and me were pretty much neck and neck on our builds.
It was helping to push me, Or should I say "kick me in the a$$" on mine.

Re: 68 C 10 stepside "My American Bulldog"

Alright, It's time to show some of the goodies I got at the swap meet.
The weather stunk, And a lot of the vender's were gone. But I found some
nice stuff.

-First some halogen headlights, With built in marker lights, And turn signals.
-Second, A new HEI distributor, With a clear cap.
-Third, Polished grille inserts, And a set of stainless corner bed rails
-Then, A set of stainless mirror stands, And stainless smoothies to go on them.
