Everything but the volt gauge. I pulled the door panels off today and greased the gears and rollers in the window regulators and they work great now.

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?

I need to fix that
32 inch tall tires.....
I have built a few vehicles from scratch and will not do that again

Much better to buy something already done or almost done it is cheaper
