Re: 71' (gonna be) a one of a kind custom

The blue body color accents (instead of the machined accents) are going to look killer on those wheels!

Re: 71' (gonna be) a one of a kind custom

Not much going on with my truck, I had been debating on using shock relocation brackets in the front. The Hotchkis ones are soooooo high dollar, and the CPP ones were much, much less. So I took out the Beltech shocks I already had and put them in the factory location to see how they fit. They fit perfectly, so I painted them black and went ahead and installed them. So that is one less worry off my mind.

Re: 71' (gonna be) a one of a kind custom

What's the difference between 1-3? And 5-6? Those grouped pics look the same to me. I like how 5&6 look, especially if you're keeping the lower trim, but 7 would be bad azz! I picked 12 because I love blue and I've thought about doing a similar paint scheme for mine. Either way you go, it will look sweet!

Those are the same, . I was with this last night before bed, I must have been too tired to notice. But the poll is set up to take multiple votes too so you could vote for 1-3 or 5&6 i guess. At this point I am making excuses

Re: 71' (gonna be) a one of a kind custom

I am liking what everyone is thinking, looks like #7 and #12 are in the lead. I might have to find a way to compromise between the two.......

Why not do the bottom of #7 and the top of #12?
I personally like the satin look and think it would look cool with both colors in satin. Just my opinion though.

Re: 71' (gonna be) a one of a kind custom

How about the bottom of #7 and the top of #11.
One in gloss black and gloss blue and another in flat black and flat blue.
I like that combo.
