    I bought some brand new headlight bezels and radiator molding. What total garbage!

    Sorry it took so long to respond. As I recall, I used a very smooth sandpaper. I didn't spend a whole lot of time with this step. Just enough to kind of remove any high spots and give it a little bit of roughness to stick to. Then I sprayed it down with a degreaser spray (409, Goof Off spray...

    Flat beds anyone?

    It was a good time! I followed them around with cash to reward them. Hell, the redhead got up inside my louvers and my wheel wells! Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    Flat beds anyone?

    While I do have a Kubota, this is another guy's place. He was nice enough (or should I say smart enough lol) to let these gals do their bikini carwash there Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    Flat beds anyone?

    Lol I'm not sure. I posted them up last summer. Here are a couple more so you don't have to go searching Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    Thanks! Truck has been buttoned up for winter, so I've been less active on here. Lots done to the truck since those pictures Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    visor worth anything?

    You're right about the old guys and Mexicans comment, but the problem is that with some of that stuff if you remove it, you'll have holes left behind in the roof or the cab. So, I think you did the right thing by getting rid of the bug guard and plastic window things, and then I'd probably leave...

    LMC should be proud

    I had something similar with them on a part a few months back. It said in stock, so I bought it. Several weeks later, no part and no communication. I email, and get kind of a snarky response that COVID has caused delays, and that it should be shipping on X date. That date came and went, and...

    79’ round eye to 80’ square eye

    Lol. That too. Just needs one of those huge ram hood ornaments now Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    LMC should be proud

    About right. I'd say 90% of the LMC stuff I've purchased for the square is good, while 100% of what I've purchased from Brothers for the square has been junk... Which is odd, because 10 years ago or so when I was buying stuff for my '69 C20 from Brothers, it was good quality for the most part...

    Headache rack ideas

    I like mine, but you'd have to buy a whole flatbed to get it [emoji23] Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    New Tires are Ugly. Bring the Classics Back!

    So, you don't think the new version of the BF Goodwrench AT (the KO2) would look good on a square? When you look at the old version side by side, it still had a tread pattern that came down almost the same distance as the new KO2. It's just a different design, and more robust than the old...

    Who rebuilds steering columns?

    running boards, nerf bars, step bars !!!

    The key to getting up in with these, is on the driver side, you step up with your left foot and hold on to the windshield frame, as you step your right foot on to the floorboard. It seems backwards, and like it wouldn't work, but it does. If you step up with your right foot on the step, good...

    running boards, nerf bars, step bars !!!

    If you look closely, you'll see one bolt on each side that goes though the bottom lip of the panel. Here's a link to the ones I got on Amazon. It shows pictures of the part that's up behind the rocker panel https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0062IJOJ2/ Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    Get yourself some steps like the ones on the Fall Guy truck. They're period correct, and work great. I got some for my truck on Amazon, and they're powder coated black. They look and work great Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    Kick panel removal

    Keep looking. There are bolts in strange and hidden places. Helps if you use a light and open/close the flap to make sure you're seeing everything. I did this a year ago or so and repainted the pieces with vinyl paint to match the rest of the interior, and I remember there were a couple bolts...

    Adding new battery cables and terminals

    Depends on how many things you plan on plugging in, I suppose. If only a couple, I'd keep it simple and keep it on the battery. I changed out my battery and cables not too long ago, and the one that plugs to the starter was just straight, so I had to put an L shaped bend in it and make sure...

    Steering Column Swap

    I don't know about using one from a car, but I have heard of using one from a similar year GM van. Do a search first, but I remember hearing that. It's really a fussy project, even swapping from a non GM squarebody tilt column to a tilt GM squarebody column. I did it over the summer, and it was...

    Off to paint!!

    I've heard so many horror stories of paint shops keeping your truck hostage for several years, that I either run a patina truck, or get one that's already got a nice paint job. Sounds like you have a really good paint shop Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk
