Re: slik ricks 67 short wide CST
Looking good man! Question, how do those parking lamp housing attach to the grille? It's been so long since I've taken mine apart and a lot of my hardware has disappeared from working on 3 restorations at the same time lol.

Re: slik ricks 67 short wide CST
well eric there are x4 7/16ths nuts that bolt on to the bolts which are attached to the park lights.... you will see on the grill there is 2 holes in each ''dip'' and you just slide the park llight in and then go underneath and bolt them up really easy if i ever go down to sac and you havent done it ill do it for you

Re: slik ricks 67 short wide CST
Just try not to take too much material out of the middle where they meet in the center. They love to crack there any way.
