What Did You Do To Your Truck Today? v2.0

IDK if I want to cut holes in the rear fenders to add side marker lights or not ?

Not just any marker lights but ones from a 48 Buick Super ..



French those puppies in would be a splash of chrome (Very little chrome on the rear of the truck) and a custom look ..

Some sort of pinstripe accent might look good on those fenders after you get it all painted up. Especially if you were to paint it black. My memory tells me you're painting it red.

Trans cooler?

Trans cooler?

Yes Sir ..
The radiator has a cooler built in ..



Since I tow with this truck the thought was to add a aux. cooler in line ..







Derale 15719 Fluid Control Thermostat Kit will also be installed ...

The US Shift standalone trans controller has a LED readout of the trans temp ..
That way I'll be able to keep a eye on how hot the fluid gets ..



The lit up gauge is for the oil temp ..
Thought it might be a good idea to keep a eye on it too ..
