Hickey Enterprises. One of the rarest parts I have ever found.

I mentioned a couple weeks back that I had came up with a really cool part I have been looking for. I have been on the search for one of these ever since I saw the Hickey Enterprises catalog a few years ago. I am really happy to have this rare piece of aftermarket off road history. This will be installed on my 77 GMC shortbed 4x4. Hope you guys dig it!

Awesome!!! That is quite a find. After the recent resurgence of Hickey-related accessories I found one of their catalogs myself and I saw that diff cover in there.

I actually am going to leave it as is. That is the original finish it would have had new.

Missed out a hood locally. A guy was parting out a 73 blazer and that was the only item he had sold.

I wish I could find one of those Hickey hard hats. Are they up to today's OSHA standards?
