Your truck looks great, I really like the color.

What about chroming that Chevrolet sign on the tailgate? Also, I think the '55-'56 Apache had a chrome strip on the leading edge of the stepside steps, the Luv box might be too short to make it work aesthetically, but then again...

Awesome job Taz :D

I had some spare time so I did a little more work on the Tazmobile.

I installed a small chrome rear spoiler, added some chrome window visors, added some custom made chrome bed rails, added some custom made chrome mini bumbers to the back, added some more chrome trim to the cab and my home made front air dam, changed hoods to the one without the hood scoop for winter weather, added some chrome spinner wheel centers w/reflective chevy logo's, touched up my door jams and did some more painting on the interior, added a console, dressed up my speaker wires better, and gave it a complete tune-up.

And no...I'm not done adding chrome stuff to it yet. :lol:

Hey Taz, what are your tail lights from? I recognize them but can't think of what they're from. I think they were vertical on the original vehicle, right?

Yep...they are vega tail lights...it sure was no fun trying to measure them to get them straight and even.

And it wasn't a joy to cut the big holes for them with a metal-cutting hole saw through 1/4 inch steel either.

I was in rrr...rrr...rrr...rrr...rrr hell for hours...lol
