Re: Stocker to Rocker (touch up build)

I like the chrome trim around the gutter rail on thr roof some one said it's was difficult to install but it sure looks nice, do you like the smaller steering wheel as apposed to the stock one I've been looking at a nice 14" one from Classic Industries, I haven't dealt with Tottaly Stainless yet but I going there tommorrow I am about an hour from their place in Gettysburg. That's really a nice truck you have, Is that Hawaian Blue, I just had to have some touch up paint custom mixed because i didn't have the paint code.

I do like the smaller steering wheel ..........The trim is pretty easy if you have the body work right and plan on taking your time......The color is 2188 Medium Blue or Hawaiian Blue was a 1973 color option bur they are really close colors from what I know....The white is 2185 standard 1972 Colors....
