Re: Project Reno - 72 cheyenne rebuild

Got the trans back in and everything hooked back up. Glad that little detour is over.

The dash is back in for a bit and to my joy bolted right in with no issue. I can't wait to see it lit up.

I pulled the grill down from the dusty loft in the garage and pulled it apart. It's in need of a little tlc. This is the inner grill re-painted and disassembled from the outer grill.

I replaced the Bowtie as the old was cracked and weathered.

I spent the rest of the day getting the oxidation and chrome off the aluminum outer grill. Pain in the rear, but it is coming along. By the end of the day I had it pretty cleaned up. I still have a little cleanup, need to paint the headlight bezels and then a final polish. The first polish was good, but needs more for the brushed look to match the rest of the trim pieces.
