MY 71 IS FINALLY FINISHED! "for now"
I think I'm done for now, I'm thinking of replacing the 3 speed manual for a 350 turbo in the near future. then I might be completely done. Let me know what you guys think.

Re: MY 71 IS FINALLY FINISHED! "for now"
Man thats a nice truck you have there! I really like your side marker fuel door setup. I'm going to me doing that to my truck in the months to come.

I noticed them when I got home from the tire shop and they where so stuck on there that I just left them alone. Some info on the truck, I went with the Vintage Air system, it went in fairly easy and it is really cold. The tires are 275/60/17 I'm running 17x10 on the back and 17x8.5 on the front. I got the wire looms on e-bay, I think they were like $30.00.
