nice

c10Dream'n · 01-14-2013, 09:56 AM

Much appreciate on all the comments. Now it's time to put my own touches to it so I can get a lil credit.

I really didn't know how the PO was going to respond or respond at all when I told him I was from San Diego. CL usually get's a lot of spam, but it worked out, and he felt comfortable with the whole deal, as did I.

The 4/6 will be my first purchase in the coming weeks.

Get that drop on there before you decide on lower profile tires. Those 55 series sidewalls may be perfect to fill the fenderwells.

c10Dream'n · 01-14-2013, 10:44 AM

Thanks for the advice, I was contemplating how to approach that.

Welcome from North Carolina and nice truck.

What smaller version mirrors are you referring to? Those are the smallest ones I'm aware of? If you're referring to the 71/72 "sport" mirrors I don't think they're large enough to cover all the holes from the 67-69 mirrors. I think the 67-69 mirrors look the best

Nice truck, have fun with it!

I was afraid that was going to be the case with the holes that are currently drilled out. I guess I just don't like the long arm with the set-up.

Was that one of Brian Gillman's trucks? I seem to recognise it, Centrailia, Chehalis is about 20 miles south of me. WES

The PO was a Jerry B. in Chehalis.

Welcome aboard from Central Florida! Very nice. You may want to do a little research on the one piece door windows, I have heard a lot about them, mostly bad, but that may just have been shoddy mfg or install...just a heads up.

Relocated Fuel Door.

shawno72 · 01-14-2013, 05:38 PM

Nice, is it a sad thing for to like the original state as much as the new state??

SCHRUMGMC · 01-14-2013, 05:52 PM

Gets the gas tank out of the cab and under the bed. Not hard to do at all, just install a Blazer tank and plumb the fill spout.

SCHRUMGMC · 01-14-2013, 05:58 PM

But what about the Original Gas thing ?
How do you cover the hole etc....

Whats bad about it being in the cab ?
Im guessing many things

To me its fine where its at in the cab. But for some it just cleans up the body not having that thing sticking out the side of your cab. Plus you can put stuff behind the seat.
