Im going to try and polish them,I had the front wheels stripped already
and started to polish them they are only 20's so they fit in the strip tank.
I figure if my attempt at polishing them fails I can fall back on powdercoating.
This is a pic of the wheel I started polishing.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build

I went and picked up my buddy buckets from storage, so of course I had to see how they fit. Looks like everthing fits good and plenty of leg room in the rear. This combo isn't set in stone so let me know what u think

Thats easy enough you can scavenge the hinges you need off of most fold down style car seats, however you may have to modify the internal structure of the buddy seat to mount the new hinges.
