Thread: 1972 Chevy K30 Longhorn Build

Tweet

Here are some pics of the parts and pieces I've been collecting for this truck lately.

Billet grill. It was cheap on another forum. I don't know if I'll put it on the truck or not. Probably not. I'll probably put it in another surround and hang it on the wall.



Some new knobs and misc. Kind of matches the vintage with a newer bling factor.



Trans dipstick, throttle pressure cable, lower rear bed mouldings, and a trans cooler.



The trans cooler had some damaged fins from shipping. I repaired them the best I could.




And finally my new tires. I'm currently stuck trying to decide to go back to steel wheels and hub caps, the current aluminum wheels on it, or a set of aluminum wheels that just have holes like a M/T classic. I'm looking at a set of the M/T's this weekend. I like the steels but the hub caps are always a bear to get off and put on without scratching the wheel or damaging the cap. I'm probably going to stay with aluminum. We shall see.
