a little smaller than OE but it looks pretty darn good, hopefully it holds up
Yeah, I would definitely prefer a nice OE one, but all the ones I find are in as bad a condition as mine and cracking, cracked or broken. I didn't know if I would like the "replacement", but it looks good and gives back that dressed up hood look.
Well that’s an interesting tidbit, because my truck has one. As you know, mine is very low on options, like three lol. No chrome trim whatsoever, no ac, radio, etc. But, it’s got this chrome piece on the hood….
It’s a strange one though. Dad was too cheap to buy a radio or AC, he definitely wouldn’t spring for a random piece of chrome that’s useless. I’m thinking more of a mess up at the factory. Maybe that hood wasn’t originally intended for the truck, but it got installed anyway.
Yea. Like I said, he’s cheap lol. So, the idea was to order a strip down model except for the 350, the gauge package, four wheel drive, dual exhaust, and the big tire package. You know, the essentials. Then add AC, a radio and dome light to save money. He said the funny thing is that he spent almost down to the penny what it would have cost just to order it from the factory. And he said the AC never did work all that well.
The trim of the truck
Interesting. Mines a custom deluxe. Strange that it has this strip, the only other chrome is the grill and headlight surrounds. Just seems random.
