What about getting them coated a gun-metal or something? Something to take the edge off the polish?

I'm ok with the polish, it matches the rest of the chrome trim...I'm just not crazy about the design and the fact it rubs when I turn too tight.

Tonight I pulled the grill off and replaced the horns. I now have a functioning horn and should be able to pass inspection now.

Chuyler, that truck looks amazing. I'm so jealous. I don't know anything about those trucks but I take it they're extremely rare? Especially in as beautiful shape as yours.

 

[chuyler1]

They made about 15,000 from 74-77 and were only sold in North America. The 77 model is the rarest and has a slightly larger cab. Most gurus think there are only about 1,000 left on the roads.

so when do you get the RV bruce?

Supposed to ship from the factory on April 29, so a few days after that I hope.

Truck looks great Chris. Wheels look fine to me.

That's great. I hope that I get to see it in person one day. I'll be following the build.

So my new headlight I ordered is broken. I installed it and the vertical adjustment does nothing. Of course it probably doesn't help when box it got shipped in was damaged... A lot.

 

[genericuser]

That's one thing I don't miss about my old 6.. The headlights on that thing were a royal PITA.

So what is your daily now, chris? The Velociraptor or the Speed?
