bougt them frome LMC and they were for the smaller lights like on a GMC.
Glad I got the GMC now, i was finally able to use the 1/2 shields. Your not out too much, They would statr to flake and rust after 18 months or so in the weather. ------------------ '69 G.M.C. 350/350.

I bought 100's of bucks in parts from LMC and never had one single problem. Went to Chevy Duty when I seen their ad and because their parts were cheaper on most parts. Most of the parts u buy are after market so sometimes they arent going to fit.

the only thing I got from LMC that fit properly, is my chevy hat. Everything else needed trimmed, bent or just put away.

Yeah.. i know most of the members who frequent this board have heard this but we got brake lines from them and no matter what we tried they were about a foot shoot. So we ended up going and buying a piece from NAPA. And then later on we found out we could of got them a lot cheaper elsewhere. At that time LMC was the only parts place we knew we had done business with before. Chevy Duty was also around but we didn't want to try a new place. Then I got smart and tried Ron Manes and GMCPauls. Some of the best choices I have ever made.

Ochre/White/Ochre Runs well... working on body. Plan to get painted weekend before memorial day weekend. Planned to be done March 7 when I turned 16. Didn't happen. Chose to do better job and be behind schedule instead of 1/2 doing it and it looking like junk.
