Not yet, I have the 3/5 drop kit from CCP, (CCP Jeff really took care of me! ) and it will be installed soon, I have been going to shows for the last 10 days......including At water Sonic, Good guys and 8 straight days in Modesto for the American Graffiti show, busy, busy, busy. However I did pick up another 63' grill from Tony form Nor. Cal (which I did replace) in addition to the 2 63' grills I already got from Griffie 63' which Kevin (Kev's Classic's) is taking to the chrome shop tomorrow, Kevin is almost done with my tilt and deluxe steering wheel, Griffie 63' is also hooking me up with some 63' sails, Moe's 64' is saving me the windshield chrome. And some guy on the forum I think they call him Del is setting me up with a beautiful seat that I need to pick up, I have big plans for this truck including the new moldings from "Brothers" and eventually a 700r4.

Re: Finally! patina big window short fleet find!

***News Flash**** The "Grey Goose" flew the coop today and went to "Kev's Classic's" it should be returning in a few days with a matching fawn tilt column and a deluxe steering wheel, plus a brand new stance! Annnnnd yes, I changed the (63') grill out again, I think this one matches the truck the best.
