these trucks don't need vacuum gauges cause they don't suck!

Re: Cool '72 Dually on ebay

Can some one post a pic? My work computer Blocks ebay links for some reason. If they ever block this site I may have to find a new job, Some times it is the only thing that keeps me sane.

If links don't work, try holding down the Control key (CTRL - lower left on keyboard) when you click the link. That will usually bypass blocks.

Usually --- not always.

Re: Cool '72 Dually on ebay

Only thing it needs IMO is the trim to be continued on the fenders (Ebay one)

Re: Cool '72 Dually on ebay

I think it looks nice, though I prefer the dually fenders to stick out a bit more... maybe they used a cab and chassis rear axle.. Maybe I am just used to the 73-87 duallys...

Yep, thats a cab and chassis rear end, and the fenders fit perfect but they don't look very good, trimmed down and very thin...Just my .02

Fenders look like crap. But nice truck!

I think I have a pic saved of that from a while ago.

Yeah, awesome truck, but the rear fenders need to be wider.

Re: Cool '72 Dually on ebay

its pretty interesting how they he did the fenders
ive never seem them trimmed down like that before
not sure that i like it, but def unique
also needs to continue the lower trim across the fenders, but other than that, its a dang slick truck!

Re: Cool '72 Dually on ebay

You boys are being pretty harsh on that guy's truck.

Personally I'd trade one of my nuts and all of ya'lls nuts combined for it, narrow fenders and all.

Re: Cool '72 Dually on ebay

The fenders are as wide as they need to be.What looks like crap is when they are too wide.I think they are smaller to fit below the trim.If that was chopped off then we`d hear,"He should have continued that trim across the fender".

Nah,what that truck needs is some mirrors.A dual wheel truck with itty bitty mirrors is useless.
