Sometimes I have to pinch myself after having removed parts. 45 years on the truck and better than new. Personally, I like some stain in the mirror. I'll hit the chrome one last time before I mount this in 2018, just because. By the image, I did a sloppy job on that boot. I should have drenched it in treatment and used a toothbrush religiously. My eyes failed me, followed by me brain. EDIT: That was a stand in, I took a pic. of the right one:

BTW, 3M chrome/metal polish is great stuff.

I developed an assm. guide "kit" for restoring the truck from ground up. With assys, the guide accts for 1000s details, OEM identifications & part numbers, written in short order. 700+ images of assm., illust., charts, and points of interest. Much of the info. applies to all 67-72 GM trucks, and to a lessor degree all 67-72 GM vehicles.
