Saw LMC Chrome Fender at Car Show - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

79BIG10 · 10-14-2003, 04:01 PM

I saw a LMC chrome fender for a 67-72 truck mounted and looked great. I talked to the owner of the truck and he said it was a GM fender from LMC that LMC themselves had chromed. The fender is not polished chrome and is only on top not chrome on underside just chromed on top. It's the passenger side here on this picture. The driver side the owner had done himself. The rest of the photos of the truck and the show are here http://users4.ev1.net/~CJHICKS1/hd.htm

What's up with the white Astro van?

79BIG10 · 10-14-2003, 04:44 PM

You got me. It was nothing special that I saw but didn't really look at it.

Ick, seems like overkill and I think it would look better paint matched as well as teh firewall.

Not for me, but I think it could look good on some rides. Hard to tell there.

Tooooo much polishing .

Remove the crome from the firewall and the finders and it would look great. my .02

yeah, I keep hearing about the chrome glove box doors now, man that has to be ignorant to your eyes on a sunny day. As far as the inner fenders go i could take it or leave it ,but definitely OK for a SHOW truck. DAVE

Those chromed glove boxes had a purpose. They worked best when your date wore a mini skirt.

crackajacka · 10-15-2003, 10:28 AM
