Little more done...LOT OF TIME! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**SactoJim** · 06-25-2007, 08:25 PM

few pics with most all trim, bumpers, grills, etc.. back on. Talk about time consuming to get everything to fit correctly.....especially that POS aftermarket grill surround. Got the bumpers fitting alot better than they ever fit stock by elongating mounting holes and a little hammer modifications.

Got about 95% of the wiring complete (aftermarket EZ universal kit) and only have to do the AC next. Front windshield will be here tomorrow and I still need to refinish my inner fender wells. Gonna order wheels and tires this week as well and need to get the seat to the upholstery guy.

So frickin close!!
