The Snortin' bull

[namloc]

Without getting to carried away.Just polishing up the rough edge's.Matching some detail's of inside trim. Still keepin' it a bit crusty.

After acquiring a couple sets of aftermarket halogen and hid bulb
housings that sucked and housings poorly made that would not even accept the bulbs .I chose just to put in halogen Phillips bulbs.

The truck with almost 500 miles on it now has been for the most part tight and rides and drives nice, The tailgate though over bumps rattle and clanked, I had some leftover sections of inner door weather strip left over that fit the edge of the gate and snugs up to bed, Tacked them on problem solved.I also found putting the chains and hooks inverted helps relieving chain smacking around.

The inner faux gate, double take gate is tacked in. Not done .Though look's pretty trick.

You are really getting the little details just right.

That faux tailgate is great.

Did a new fuel line for my truck yesterday.

A little shake down today.Jacked up and tightened up and check of the underpinnings.Nothin' found major. Did find a backed off tie rod sleeve jamb nut.

After a some higher heat temp's and a lot of Seattle rain the bed wood moved and curved up and down,Added a couple of extra anodized aluminum strap's and all good.

Thank's for chekin' in. I went back and forth with possible the louvered panel and than the spare gate came along.I showed a few buddie's the GMC gate stuck.

[Ronzo]

Door lock's. Original right outside handle's had no lock cylinder's .Though in the past some tried to get trick.Check picture's.It didn't work. In the month of driving to much attention is occurring. New lock's in both handle's . And a new relay rod now also in left door.

For sure will do.it will a bit tricky for me as my frame is z'd in frt .

[namloc]

So the other nite i had to go to an open house at a AC DELCO warehouse . And like seeing a rock star in the parking lot was one of Dels build's. To cool in Auburn WA.

[namloc]

I was never real happy with the how the front down tubes of the exhaust came out.I could not get them up higher than the frame. I stepped up and had a very talented exhaust fab. man redo them. In stainless and up higher so now the lowest portion of the truck is the frame.

[namloc]

Blending the cab and bed together.No three stage paint and final buff needed here.
