Well you of all people should know about buying things multiple times until you find the right one. I may still be interested.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"

So speaking about buying things. I found another set of shocks I am going to try out. These will work. I have been holding off on them cause trying to get interior done but I couldn't wait. Plus they are $85 a pop. And that cuts into my interior budget. And the wife fussing about the truck lol. God love her.

It is a 76 grille. So I would look like mine. Good shape not cracked not faded. Nice piece I would put it on mine. But I am so far outside of being stock I have started looking at other options for my grille area. I will take my grille off and hang it in the garage over my tool box so if I change my mind I can put it back on. I bought this other 76 grille cause I had a plan I was going to implement but changed my mind on it.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"

I am going to gut the interior which is in mint condition so I can convert it to black. So I have been talking with a few people who might want my interior I have now. Which would help me out finishing what I need to do with mine and help them out also. Win win for both sides. Nice thing about these forums. Helping each other out and getting good deals on hard to find parts and good ideas.

I liked the factory green interior but this is definitely going to be over the top - looking forward to seeing it.
