Thanks for the complements on the trucks, but to answer your question on the plates look at post 152 and you can see that I just layed the cut older (California) plate right on top of the newer plate after they were painted and fastened them together with the frame on top, the screws do the rest. No welding required! ......... *Remember* If you paint the plates and they like sh#....... :eek: I mean don't look right you will get a TICKET! because it's against the law. :sumo:

It looks like the shipper only used newspaper for padding? Ouch. Glass kinda takes real special attention to get delivered safely. It can be done but you have to plan for the couriers dropping,throwing and stacking your boxes.
Sorry for your loss.

Yeah I called but the guy was like "you said you'll give me how much?" and the next thing I heard was "click". Just kidding Rene. I wish we could work out a deal for a trade but I think yours may be ahead of mine. :waah:

Yes the tilt has been hot tanked, stripped and primed. Gonna paint parts tomorrow. :metal:
Printed circuit for tach dash is on order. :ito:

I love the gmc buddies but for color combo those green buckets are a perfect match IMO.

Keep the green seats.
I'm pretty sure the GMC buddy buckets will find a home in a future purchase,...

Very nice truck..Perfect patina! Looking for a solid swb 4x4 project.

i agree, save the buddies for another - they make a good excuse to buy another truck to fit them...
