Re: PO has me PO'd
Wow, was starting to get disheartened, glad you guys posted up....
mounted my bowtie on the grille today, not sure if there is a top and bottom perfect patina to match my truck, also played around with my bed side rails, but I'm not sure if I'm junking up the truck. sorta like adding another window to the taj mahal, you guys let me know

Eyebrows ARE a *****. And it doesn't matter if they are original or re-pops.

Re: PO has me PO'd
I was wondering how long it would take you GMC guys, that has done eyebrows to chime in. Yes, truly a PITA

Re: PO has me PO'd
Looking good! Dang, I love the look of those LT1 intakes. Seems like you're buttoning up lots of loose ends.

Always liked the look of the TPI, but if the FI works, I'll change it out for a englese or hilabrandt Bill, thanks for bringing that up, I've been on the fence with that one. And, you're right, doesn't quite fit the direction I want to go. Good thing I didn't buy that NOS set that is available Maybe, I should have built an Amphicar Well, back to work on the throttle bracket, weird, my kick down cable only moves 3/4" and my throttle cable moves 2"

Re: PO has me PO'd
![]() my ashtray kept falling out due to the plastic rails broken, went to my spare center section I bought years ago, and it had good rails. 4 Phillip screws later, all excess able from the front bottom, and my ashtray doesn't fall out any more. it is easier if the radio is removed [url=https://flic.kr/p/TE8NYj] ![]() you can see the threads of the two screws on the left side of the bracket (top and bottom) Maybe Wes will see this and will work for his next project

Re: PO has me PO'd
![]() some of the handy work of the PO, some people shouldn't have access to tools, but luckily the mounting buckets cover 2/3 of the hole

Re: PO has me PO'd
sorry J for not posting up, seems I myself have been the project of late. Between my vascular surgeon, and my cardiologist, I've needed a complete rebuild... should be good to go, as I've had my surgeries done yesterday! A couple days recovery and should be back at it
Ya never know which way a project will progress, but I haven't given up yet. Hopefully, I'll have something to report in the next week or so
