Re: 198Plus build

Just a update on my never ending build......
I got my gauge cluster trim back today that I had polished, I thought it turned out pretty nice.

That thing looks awesome. Thanks for sharing and good idea to have the bezel and lense polished. It should look outstanding in your truck.

That seems to be the norm these days. Nobody gives a $hit. They don't have pride in there work. Except Allan and all of us.

Re: 198Plus build

Man sorry to hear about all the bad luck with that truck. Maybe you need to unload it and get another one.

Maybe people should just start going postal on these shops and maybe it would change a few things....

Re: 198Plus build

I'm just trying to see how much money I can blow doing this project

The truth is, I already had these doors from my parts truck and decided to give them new life and I wanted to use OEM doors anyway.

Re: 198Plus build

Did you do it or have it done. I'm thinking I have a couple doors that could use some skin. I love blowing money too. I bought a couple doors for 75. They are in good shape except it looks like the guy used a belt sander to sand off the door logo. It warped the doors. I tried to fix it, but, I'm no Alan.
