Re: 1971 c10 stepside

ok take number two on gauges , this time im much happier with the direction its going , kind of hard to explain but i will try , the bezel will be painted on a matte silver like the gauges trim and also to flow with the rest of interior while the wood piece will be stain in a gray color that i picked, as also the steering wheel and bed will share the same stain color , u get it , lol !!! so stay tuned

Re: 1971 c10 stepside

Took a picture of Raul's pool table because it was full of new parts. In fact all the engine parts are all in the garage, in the closets, kids room I mean there are parts EVERYWHERE so I dont know what the hold up is and now I find the thread has been inactive for almost two weeks. Raul come out from wherever you are and start finishing this truck as cruising season is almost here.

Dale!!!!
