Which looks better?

Hey Kieth -
You and I must think LOTS alike, because I absolutely HATE those center caps on there now. Your suggestion is awesome - I have some older, but not so vintage dog bowls I can practice with. You also spurred more thought - I'm going to look to see what center caps are available for later model trucks too. The ones that have the fake lugnuts that actually screw down over the real ones.

More research, lol....


And thanks to all for the vote for the panels! I think this truck will be the one that gets a "real" resto, since my 66 kinda turned into Frankenstein.

Also, what does the crowd think about two-toning the cab? Since the wheels were already silver and the paint was so dark, I chose some dupli-color GM metallic silver to paint inside the trim. I'm thinking that might look pretty good on the top half of the cab, but also worry it might look "gaudy".

So, I need more of your guidance.
