Re: '72 Drop member... "Betty"

Your truck,... in my mind,... is perfect.
If you had to build this truck over, or build another one,... would you do anything different?
Any products you wouldn't use or things you wish you had done?
Just had to ask.

Hey lowlife99 sorry for the late response. I can honestly say I wouldn't change a thing. I guess I would have welded up the dash for a factory radio, but that's it. And I'm going to fix that sometime this year. Also I may hinge the bedwood so people can see what's going on under there.

I am going to replace the rubber seals on the glass. Precision replacement parts just jumped on board. I'm going to try some of their new products. From what I've seen they are the best.

Upgrading the rubber seals to Precision replacement parts products. If you want a quality product you need to get them from precision. I am also trying out thier new press on rubber door seals. They rock! No more messy glue that doesn't work. Lol
