Also got the grill off and my amber high beams put in And started on transferring the interior from my wrecked truck into the new one Only thing so far I was not expecting was the gas tank to be crunched to all hell More pics tomorrow Quote Link to comment

Laecaon Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 From what I have seen, it is very good work! 1 Quote Link to comment
Eagle_Adam Posted May 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 Found out the truck came with new exterior window squeegees And new door seals So I replaced the drivers door locking mech and added my aluminum door lock pulls 1 Quote Link to comment
slodat Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 Squeegies came from Nissan a few years ago. The door seals are aftermarket re-pops installed a year ago this month. I was working on a custom pinch welt that would seal around the window frame portion of the door. I have the stuff to make it in the shop.. Quote Link to comment
