Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"

Thanks. That plastic on the panels turned out to be a little harder to cut than I thought lol. It all has turned out just how I pictured it in my head. Still need to install carpet and do the seat but that is easy stuff.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"

Well had a good weekend at the Rod Run. C10's galore. If you want a C10 you could have found one with no issues. Only had 1 issue show up rattled the header collector bolts loose. Stage 8 coming my way.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"

O I forgot scraped the front bumper a few times also on some dips. Good news is that didn't rub run my control arms or anything underneath. I need new bumpers anyways. Also found out that I can not drive over top of a 32oz Gatorade bottle lmao.

Thank you beer can. The headliner is new. I sold my original headliner in the effort to convert the interior to all black. The headliner is a Acme headliner the same one LMC, USA 1 industries, and others have. But here is the kicker don't buy it from them. Buy it from Rock Auto and save yourself some $$. This also applies with the carpet also all the LMC of the C10 world use ACC carpet. Buy it from Rock Auto and save yourself some $$. Now back to the headliner it fits just like factory only difference is it has a ABS backing besides that it is the same. Fits good and looks good win win.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"

So the wife has been on my ass about cleaning out the garage. I have been slowly cleaning and trashing stuff. But I have found a bunch of stuff that I have ordered and didn't use. So I collected it all up sat down and started going through all the orders i have placed preparing to send back for a refund. Well the mod I want to change something bug got a hold of me. So instead of a refund which is what I should have honestly done I got some goodies coming. New AFR TXR composite intake, New AFR Valve covers, New Black Carpet and a new throttle tv cable bracket setup. Did I need any of it no but I sure have been eyeing it for almost a year. But my loss is someone's gain cause I wont be needing my polished intake or the fancy Proform slanted valve covers anymore. So when that stuff shows up I will post some pics.
