Re: Build that 71 402 already

Threw the grille on today, it's been a long time coming. The outer has been wall decor the last 7 years. Inner was shot, sanded, shot again and a clear coat, needless to say it's much heavier now. Took longer than I thought of course, nylon clips have to be sanded just right. My assistant, really vise versa, he's body and paint guy dropped these wheels off today. Tires due "in a month", bumpers due "call back in two weeks", upholstery & flooring is supposed to call. Other then that and a few decals it's done. I ended up choosing these tires. Diamondback 235-75-15.

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. My build thread, and more on the guide https://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/...d.php?t=730025
