Just tack in the bear claw latches. Works great. I posted some photos of the installation.

How about some pics of 47-59

MaBelle. She's come along way since I got her in 2007, and like most of these old trucks, they're not done until you pass them off to your kids. But even then.....

Talking Love that GM Green

Awesome truck dad's got there. And if you're not hitting the highway, stock is the way to go.

Here is my 57. I'm getting there but I fear that the farther I go the farther I'm away from the finish line.

Nice Truck!
Just wondering did it come with the Steering column and wheel that way
do you know? as all the 57's i have seen had the shorter steering column with the Deeper Dished Steering wheel.

Just Curious
