Re: original-71 update pics after new shoes and drop

Hector- That looks awesome. Get a pint of Eastwoods High Temp Stainless steel paint, and go after your exhaust manifolds. Wire brush them as clean as you can, then paint them with a foam brush. They will look a little uneven at first, but that will clear up after you run the motor and the paint cooks in.

You will be amazed at the results.

Re: original-71 update pics after new shoes and drop

I've been looking at those filler panels for a few months now. They look very nice on your truck. I had to pull the trigger and order them today. I was sold when I saw your pics. Took me a while to order them though... having them delivered to work so the wife doesn't get upset that I bought the truck some parts costing more than her valentines gift and flowers.
