Nice stuff out there. I have a question about your truck, did you have your hood springs and latch spring plated or did you find them for sale somewhere? And as always your taking us along to the shows with you is much appreciated.

Jimmy , found those on the web in June '13 . Someone in the mid U.S.A. gave up on a build & had those , the spring hinges & hinge supports for sale so they all came south . Chrome is one of the fav colors .

Very cool, you scored on those for sure. Now, they are Rocking your engine bay. I would imagine that polishing all the spring surfaces would be time consuming for a platter, thus making them expensive. Keep on Rocking it the FTE way.
