69 custom 10 progress
Well, i had some extra time this weekend, so i got a "renewed interest" in my 69 project truck. My wife told me that i have to get it sold, so i guess i will get it finished. This weekend, i put new exhaust on it "duals" installed the upper and lower trim and installed a cargo light. What do you think?
Hopefully, i can get it to the auction block next week. Thanks David

Did you put trim on with adhesive, or did you drill holes and use clips?

I used 3m double sided tape, but did put a few very small screws in the holes where a po had done the same. I just didn't trust the tape to hold the trim on when i reach interstate speeds.

On my new project I was going to put the 3m tape on as well - it sticks like flys on sh*&. I ended up finding a fully trimmed truck, so I guess I will reuse the holes once the paint is done this summer.

i agree with the trim it looks alot better. those dirty tires bother me for some reason... clean them up and the truck would look another 100% better (if thats possible)
