Re: Project: Shiro

House looks great. Wish I had a 3 car garage. They always look bigger with nothing in them

I'm probably in the same boat, but have to ask, exactly how much would it take for you to let go of it?

I will be asking $21,500 obo for the truck, the Porterbuilt parts, and the new sheetmetal. If you are going to build one it will save you time and money.

Re: Project: Shiro

No, not going to sell any of the sheet metal. Probably going to start replacing that stuff if it doesn't sell soon.

Re: Project: Shiro

Knocked out some things that have been naggin' me since I Shiro arrived almost a year ago, it's about time right? Installed a billet radio bezel because one of the previous owners was a douche. I replaced the turn signal switch because it failed to self cancel and was pretty much a sloppy POS.

So I arrive to pick up my turn signal switch at the local NAPA Auto Parts and I'm greeted by this behemoth sittin' low.

They call it the NAPAllac...

Here is the radio bezel after install, I think I will have all the chrome bits powder coated or painted satin black when/if I blow this thing apart.

Here is the signal switch as it comes from NAPA. Not a fan of the pigtail that must be used but after you hide it behind the dash it is soon forgotten.

And here is the finished product. It's crisp and tight and I love having the self cancelling function.

I'll try and get a pic or video of the dash lights working as they should... and it only took 10 months to fix them.

It's so nice to have gauge lights that actually work. Glad I finally squared that away.
