Re: my new project ground pounder


got a couple more things done.
i put my rear bumper back on for now so i can drive it a little.
i put my used marker lights on that i got from a board member.
i fixed my pass. side window reg. by replacing it with another used 1 i had.
i also replaced the black vent window with a chrome 1 while i had it apart.
now i have both chrome vent windows.
a little progress is better than none.

Re: my new project ground pounder

This is one nice truck you have there, and I agree, it is always the little touches that make a difference.
