Welll something I should had done since the beginning I waited till now to do. I went ahead and got a tail gate black chevrolet band. several people had suggested it and I have no idea why I never did it before. here are some picts from before during and the end result.

We did this at my best friends house and I have to admit that I am stoked about the improvement of the look back there..

On the quest to making "sylvester" better ,we are going to add autometer gauges as well as a new gauge bezel.

The big white truck showed up yesterday with some of the goodies I have been ordering lately. I am still waiting for the big brown truck in the next few days for more goodies to arrive so we could tackle it all.

Teaser Picture.....

**67cheby** · 09-24-2011, 10:03 AM

is the brown truck bringing all the PORTERBUILT stuff???? just sayin

STOCKISH · 09-24-2011, 11:19 AM

Looking good Al, and I agree with 67 on the Porterbuilt stuff, just sayin'!
