1950 Hood Cowl Rubber - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Curt - TN · 01-10-2017, 04:36 PM

I installed the new Hood Cowl Rubber on my 1950 and it looks like I need to cut some of the rubber off and I was wondering how much to leave on the end if any?

Recommendations?

I think mine has about 1/2"-1" sticking out below the last clip.not sure what it was new but I would definitely trim that off..

I am defiantly trimming it, just did not want to whack off too much.

Well now that I re-read my last sentence that sounded like something I should not say out loud if you read it the wrong way

I'm pretty sure that this one on a 49 cab is the original strip.

There is too much snow to look at the other cabs right now.
