Post a pic of your daily driver

I have never seen someone put 73-80 trim on the 81 up fenders. Doesn't look as bad as you would think.

There was 2 reasons behind that. #1 I wanted it to be different....#2 I didn't want to have to fill in all those holes in the rest of the truck,  I like the way it turned out. It was easier to just fit the trim to the fenders....  Wish I could locate a good set of trim from a dually crew,I'd put it on my 87....

Dude read my post again. I know it is an 75 with original trim and I know that the front clip has been swapped. I was commenting on putting the 73-80 trim on the 81-91 fenders.

Sweet Dualie there Topless. I've always had a softspot for those, especially black with the alum or chrome rims.

The pics worked just fine.  Those are some nice wheels.  I am in a similar boat as you, two dailies, a sub and a pickup.

Ted, those are NICE !!!!!   Looks great, hope my 82 C10 looks that good some day!

[GMCTed]

Thanks for the comments guys. i thought i`d show what the suburban looked like when i bought it. I got it to use in the  winter so i didn`t have to use my pickup. But it was in very good shape and only had 57,000 original miles on it and just a little surface rust. The only thing wrong with it was that it was butt ugly!   so along with making my girlfriend angry for spending the money restoring it and a few maxed out credit cards i think i made a good decision. (once she saw how good it turned out she started taking credit for how it turned out  )  I let everyone know she had nothing to do with it!
