Re: My 86 build

so I parked the truck yesterday.....been getting too cold in the mornings, to be drivin with no heater and wipers!....I put just under 7500km on the truck since the LS swap and it never gave me any trouble other than a few tuning issues.... trying to save up some money now to do a few things to it over the winter.....

Re: My 86 build

Truck looks great Moose! One question on your dash, did you glue down the weave before you resin'd it or did the resin do the job?

not too bad, fades real quick tho, but the best part is that I can just spray over it again......

nope, I just roughed the vinyl up with a d/a sander and brushed on some resin, and laid down the weave, and soaked it with more resin.......

Exactly! I'm glad you chose wisely, as the old knight said! It's supposed to be in the upper 70's or low 80's down here this weekend. Hopefully Sunday, I can get my bed pulled and start grinding some rivets and one year, maybe catch up with where you are now!

Re: My 86 build

Is it a full length grill that covers the headlights too? Also is it fully polished? Or polished on the front and painted black everywhere else?
