Boy oh boy that does look like one sweet ride.

I purchased a 5 window off of Ebay this summer for a few parts. When I picked it up the cab was in better shape than I had imagined, so I may install new cab corners and turn it into a daily driver.

I had considered red, I think seeing yours cinched the color choice.

My "atta boy" for doing such a nice job. Thanks for posting the photo.


Word hard, play harder, enjoy life!

Cletis,C.Gresham and I saw a sun-visor like yours at the swap meet a few weeks ago..............how do you install those things? do you have to drill holes, etc.. some seem to be heavier then others,

Don't have to drill holes. It Clamps onto the drip rail and the center strip (Very secure). I had to grind on the mounts a little to get it to fit, but I think you have to do that with any "Universal Fit" accessory. The thing is also very lightwieght. It feels real sturdy though when all the clamps are tight. I haven't had it out on the highway yet. I'll post about that tonight. wink
