Re: 72 Cheyenne Super Take a look

Kevsclassic you did a great job. Looks great.
But i have been saying the same thing for years about the trim. I see it on this board all the time, classic trucks magazine and car shows. I know that it can be a chore to get everything lined up. Especially the cab corners. Both of these trucks look great.

Re: 72 Cheyenne Super Take a look

I've never seen a chromed factory tilt before, it looks great! Any idea how much it cost to have one chromed? I have one disassembled that I was going to repaint but chroming it would be even better

No offence taken at all. I also have seen many nice trucks with uneven moldings. Yours look pretty straight. Things like that makes yours stand out from others. Yes I remember meeting you. Hope to meet again. I would like to see your truck in person. Are you going to Pleasanton this weekend? If I go I will be spectating due to the price of gas I will go in my wifes Camry 4 cyl.

Do you know where they came from..??

thanks

Looks like someone took a set of 72 covers, cut the centers out and added the houndstooth. Here's a set I'm doing for my Suburban:
