Re: SoCal checkin' in

A hi torque mini starter will solve all of the problems associated with an oem starter; grinding, clicking, not engaging, heat soak...

Pissed off stupid yuppies who pay WAAYYYY too much $ for the same junk you can buy anywhere else for 1/4 the price....

If you're local to Pasadena , try the PCC Swap Meets , corner of Colorado Blvd. & Hill St. , tons of good stuff cheap , I don't know when they have them though as I'm too broke to go to swap meets now .

Re: SoCal checkin' in

Made a front end decision at the half off sale at Pick your Part. Going to keep the GMC look since I got a great price on the grille. Now to figure out to get it chromed or just paint it to match the truck color.

Thanks Andy. The shine you see on there is from me using some Mothers Polish on it just to see how it would come out. Has a ding or two and a hole at the bottom. Which can all be fixed.

I was seriously debating especially when I saw the new grille was 500.00 new
and the 67-68 chevy grille for way less. But as you say its growing on me also, and I dont see alot of GMC on the road.
