Yeah, I was just joking. If anyone criticizes my truck I'll do a big block burnout beside there's and throw some tar on it!!!! hehehe

Those gauges look really good

Re: And so it begins................
 
Thanks! The gauge panel was about 200.00 shipped on ebay. A man named Edd Dial rebuilds them and puts the white vinyl on the gauges, new lens, new bezel and he gaurantees them. He'll also give you 25.00 for your old panel. Tell him Travis sent you if you order one.

I'm going to cruise it up to Scott's after while without any mirrors. You think I"ll get pulled over? :lol:

Re: And so it begins................
 
Nah most cops aren't that worried about mirrors. Besides just push it to the floor and let fate take over! :lol::metal:

gauges look awesome

Re: And so it begins................
 
Thanks, and before someone teases me about the pink dash lights, let me just say that they only look that way in the pic!! :lol: You can order the panel with several different color bulbs and I ordered mine with the purple bulbs. They're actually a maroon color when you turn them on. I don't know why they look pink in the pics.

cool!
amazing how much a little face lift does for a truck huh?
what did you do with the rallys? were they 15x7's?
I must admit, she sounds great in person :metal:

highperf4x4 05-10-2009 10:46 PM

Re: And so it begins................
 
Yeah they were 15x7 and I still have them although only 2 had the trim rings.

JohnC 05-11-2009 09:56 AM

Re: And so it begins................
 
Rallies? I thought you just bought new wheels?

highperf4x4 05-11-2009 12:33 PM

Re: And so it begins................
 
Yeah I did. The 7" Rallys are what was on it when I got it. I put the Chrome wagon wheels on it.

My father is looking for set of 8" rallys for his truck though.

What kind of truck does he have?

highperf4x4 05-11-2009 01:04 PM

Re: And so it begins................
 
It's a 95 Chevy king cab. 5on5. It has the original rallys on it now but they don't come out far enough.
