[Prowbar]

Here are the headlamp mounting plates. They were black on my truck, so I painted them black as well. I riveted the adjuster screw nuts to the plates, as well as the springs.

The holders for the lamps were zinc plated. I freshened up the headlight rings.

I ended up painting the grille and bumper in white but the paint did not spray well and leave a good finish, so it will be redone. I did get a almost perfect color match with the original, so the plan is to use the color from the paint and match it in a 2K polyurethane paint and redo the whole thing.

I am also planning to black out the bar behind the GMC letters.

Here is a shot of the installed bumper brackets. I sand blasted and painted them.

The parking light lenses were long gone, so I bought new reproductions.
I had the original "buckets" zinc plated and riveted them together with new gaskets.

Here is a picture of the restored engine bay. I forgot to dust off the heater box

The truck has been parked in storage for now, since I'm leaving for Wyoming tomorrow. Hoping to resume working on the truck when I get back.

See you in 6 months!
