What I've been up to.



Before



After.





Note the left side bulge.

Under the knife for...

Clifford alarm with some extra goodies

Custom Autosound radio (There, I didn't cut the dash, Dennis won)

Heater Core

Locking Hood Cable w/ Key (shown in other thread)

New Grill Shell (shown in other thread)

new (to me) headlight brackets.. mine were spot welded to the core support when my father and I did the swap back in 2002. I didnt have "truck" buckets at the time, I used car buckets and made them fit. They worked, but the lights sat about 3/4" too deep into the grill opening.

I stripped picklex20d and Zero Rusted them.. (they always rust out up here.. not that the truck is seeing salt, but, I had teh parts off lol).

Also got rid of the LED turn signal bulbs that my father loved, but I hated.. they were not really visible during the day.
