    Which aftermarket LED headlights?

    So thinking about upgrading to some decent headlights one or both square body’s. Kind of looks like the top three are Holly retro Bright, RMS, or HE. All seem very similar. I think one of them has glass lenses. Haven’t compared bulbs, but all are similarly priced. Opinions?

    If you live in PA and see this truck it’s mine!

    Actually used to be mine. Sold it to a dude in PA. Named Paul. Idk where he lives, never asked. I’m sure he will have it running and out and about before long. He sent me a pic today.

    No dash lights suddenly, just the small gauges, on the 77.

    Slightly different issue than most of the posts about cluster lights. All the lights worked last time I drove it at night. Been only day driving it for a couple months though. Last night took a spin since I had the headlight on for a couple hours making light in the garage (power has been out...

    Cheap defective aftermarket parts….lol

    So’s I come home last night, walking thru the garage that I’d just cleaned the floors in couple days ago. So no errant oil drips; stains etc on the floor. Office a new puddle under ole brown. Sure nough the aftermarket auxiliary fuel tank circa 1970s is leaking just a tad. Coincidentally I...

    GMT 800 cab corners/rockers rust?

    So I’m sure many of you are familiar with these trucks. Looking at a cat eye reg cab pickup. ( Not in person yet, it’s 9 hours away in MT). Been a MT truck it’s whole life but it’s an original 50k mile grampa truck that by all accounts is absolutely pristine. Undercarriage pics look beautiful...

    Are OE lug studs long enough? 77 C10

    So got some new kicks for the brown truck. Good news is found out the truck has all new lug studs front and back! Bout the only pleasant vehicular surprise lately… see rant thread. Son tried to mount one up when he picked up the wheels from the tire shop, said the threads sticking out of the...

    Power window motor?

    Quick check before ordering a new drivers side window motor. Have power to the switch. Power to the window motor plug as expected on/off with the window switch. No other possibilities, correct? Just a smoked window motor?

    Been runnin on empty for 40 miles!

    Like the Eagles song except no tape deck in the truck. The old 77 has an aftermarket aux tank. PO said it is only 10 gallons. Asked him why he thought that. Said cause when it’s on E it only takes 10 gallons…reasonable logic. But the tank looks roughly the same size as the OE tank. =20 gal...

    Fix dragging doors. Shims

    Maybe I’m just the only dummy who’s been listening to the doors scrape on the striker for, oh, years now…. @bucket solved that issue for me. I never considered shimming the bottom door hinge to pick it back up. Scamazon brought me a 237 piece body shim kit for like $10. Shimmed out the door on...

    ‘75 Dodge Powerwagon. Ran when parked….lol

    So have decided this ain’t the truck for me, especially since the addition of the BIG10 to the fleet. I know all y’all are squarebody folks (or trolls if ya ain’t lol) but check this out. I’d take $3k for it. -Original 44k miles 75 Powerwagon Adventurer Sport -360/Auto, full time 4wd -Cruise...

    Soon to be new member…

    The truck, not the person (me). Sneak peak below. I’m usually a little too superstitious to claim something prematurely, but it’s basically a done deal, was hoping to have it this weekend but probably mid week before I pick it up.

    True original 30k mile 77 C20 for sale. And I know the truck

    If anyone is after a 77 or 70s C20 that is about as close to new as you can reasonably get, this is the truck. My buddy has been trying to sell it. Don’t think he will take under $8k. Found it a year or 2 ago. As it sits. 36 or 39k miles 350 auto 4.10, every option possible. Interior...

    Cheap chit parts….

    Guess I’m happy stuff like this is even available, but this is a new repop hood ornament. Been on the truck for just over a year. Truck spends 95% of its life in the garage and rarely out in the rain or snow. And it’s starting to go to crap already…the little chrome colored band around the red...

    New Bitchin Camaro…

    Pursuant to my thread about the fail on the yellow truck….found this gem a couple days ago. 65k miles, a bout as clean/new looking and running as any 24 year old car can be unless it was literally mothballed since new. Never cared much for them back in the day, but now they’re almost “classic”...

    Powered sub location?

    So, may get to finishing off the stereo in the square here real soon. Got the boy an amp and a slim powered sub for Xmas. (But well time and now motivation have been lacking…) Plan was/is to put the sun under the seat. Easy to build some standoffs and easy to secure and seems like a good spot...

    Anyone lookin for a big boy Blazer, this looks promising. Brand new big ole 406, 1 tons F and R and already lifted. And no rust…. Maybe a little high on price but not a FU price for sure.

    Summit Racing DIY bedliner?

    I’ve generally been of the opinion that none of the DIY bedliners perform as well as the 2 big name ones. But with @TotalyHucked posting the new stuff he’s demoing and I saw Summit is offering diy urethane kits, anyone try these?

    New Snackwagon

    Snackwagon V3.0 here. Found this thing today. 90k miles, all original and as nice as it looks inside and out. I ran out of “things it needs” before I got to counting on both hands. And none of them are needs. Runs and drives like new! Pretty pumped. Super cheap car and the crashwagon, his...

    CSI Ceram X Polish. Anyone tried it?

    Read some stuff on the interwebs and this stuff they claim will replace compound/polish/glaze (swirl remover). Seems too good to be true. Although I recall an old product back in the day that many now swear was just a glaze, Liquid Ebony, that I felt did the same thing. In fact started using it...

    Lotsa nice squares on CL out here right now!

    Seems market is getting softer. (Fck the stock market I judge the economy by squarebody prices lol!) Looking yesterday, I saw a few that I would have absolutely considered and probably jumped on over the blue truck if today was 2 years ago. More good 80s trucks and Blazers than 70s and the ever...
