Re: Locomotive Lugnut
Threw in some halogen headlamps today. Also had RPL customs install a Vintage Air system so now I have some cold AC.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Where did you source your headlamps from? They fit the truck well

And the truck overall has turned out great, congrats

I ordered them from LMC but you can get them from other places. They are just 5 3/4" headlights they fit the truck fine.

Re: Locomotive Lugnut
Looks great as does the rest of your truck. I bet it was a little scary "committing" to print the centers.

Nice work
Marc
