Gotcha!!!!!!!! Sorry Pimpston. I know that was cruel. Couldn't resist. Shoot! I wouldn't know what a NOS locking hub looked like if it hit me in the head. But if you were near me, you'd probably show me what it feels like to get hit in the head with one. Haha!

I'm happy you found what you dreamed of. Congrats buddy!

Nice find---so where did you find them?

**aerotruk63** · 11-05-2015, 01:48 PM

HER truck will be in the majority of NOS parts, could it then be considered new?

that upper windshield frame sticker is awesome! wonder if you can scan it and have it reproduced before you stick it?
probably not a huge market for it , but might be worth doing anyway.

CONGRATS!!!

It's a cliche that "the fun is in the chase," but maaaan it's SO true for some parts!

If you've got a set of good non-NOS ones after all the dust settles, let me know: I'm going to start on MY dream 4x4 this winter: Knee-knocker long-bed step-side. 4spd OD manual trans, 350 with 2.5-inch Rams Horns, winch-mount front bumper based on a modified factory bumper and factory bumper guards, wrap-around rear Commercial bumper, and dual spot lights.
