Re: I'm one of you guys now
Oh man I can't wait to see the round headlight clip on it. It's really going to change the character of that that truck. Not the character driving, just the character of it.

Re: I'm one of you guys now
Can you black out the windows in the pics and toss in a bright silver stripe or maybe a triple black?

Re: I'm one of you guys now
It looks awesome man! Except now with the different front end now it needs to be lowered back down.
![]() On a side note. Does that gas station know you were stealing gas? It looks closed to me. ![]() |

Re: I'm one of you guys now
I cleaned up the grill and installed it and while I was at it I cleaned the headlight bezels.
I just sat the bumper in place to take a couple pics. I do like it much better. I think I will need to paint the grill, it is discolored in a few spots, and my bezels are not the best but it got me the front end I wanted and I can replace/upgrade/repair the stuff later.....

Re: I'm one of you guys now
It reminds me of my old 76's and as I took a look at the pics of my first one, I noticed that there is a 6 year old Blake in the background of one and another has a shot of the rear end of his Satellite in it!
![]() That was 12 years ago and he's going to rework the car again! ![]() One other thing I noticed. My truck had the flush grill and yours is the inset style. Wonder when they changed? Oh, there's another fun fact I see! This truck has the exact same wheels as the ones I just put on my '72 and the rear tires are also Cooper Cobras!!! I don't like change huh? ![]() ![]() ![]() Last edited by highperf4x4; 09-12-2009 at 01:55 AM. |

Re: I'm one of you guys now
I think it gives the front end more depth and character. It will even look better when you get it all painted.
