Re: 72 Not sure what to call it yet resto!
Love the fender picture. Can't wait to see it all together. That seat looks like it's good condition. What's the story on the console?

Re: 72 Not sure what to call it yet resto!
When I purchased the truck it had buckets in it. Not original stuff but covered short buckets of some variety.
I want a bench for the passenger room (little girl) and maybe mom.  The console was in the truck when I purchased it. No plans for it at the moment...

Re: 72 Not sure what to call it yet resto!
I got the wheels and tires mounted on the truck yesterday... I like it! Not what I was planning when I started this project but I like the way it's going.
The Streeters don't have the best shine but for the money they are pretty nice wheels. I ordered some California Purple to try on them...  I started to clean up the gauge cluster and work on getting it in decent condition to put back in. Waiting on some parts... Is there a way to reset the odometer??? |

CC10DP D-port header... I got them from ECE. They are the same as those listed on ECE web just these are for the D-port. Nice finish and they fit perfect so I was able to run the entire exhaust thru the frame.

Re: 72 Not sure what to call it yet resto!
Wheels and tire look great. Thats the size I want to go with (295/40/20 rear). I think that old cup holder console is pretty hard to find. nice piece.

Re: 72 Not sure what to call it yet resto!
Hey Chris, the new wheels and tires look great! I like them a lot. I heard they are pretty nice for the money. I assume you got the polished finish? Try meguires aluminum polish it works pretty good.
 LINK.I was wondering if you have the paint code for your white paint too? |

Re: 72 Not sure what to call it yet resto!
OMG I am SOOOOOO jealous! I wish I had even a fraction of your skill and budget! My 72 has quite a few things that were hidden from me when I bought it and I want to do so much to it but I have absolutely no cash to do anything to it and no skill when it comes to mechanical, body, or paint work. Great job on your truck! I am really excited to see the finished product!

Re: 72 Not sure what to call it yet resto!
Man I worked my tail off today with my our body guy (James)... 32 inches this, move this, shim this...then move that again. Do it two or three times and look at it again.
Sorry no pics until tomorrow or monday. The more I work on this truck the greater respect I gain for a quality built truck. It's a lot of work and this truck is nothing compared to some on this board. Have a good weekend.
