Thanks for your work on the dashboard ... I have a 69 that a previous owner chooped up the dsah ... no hope of getting back to stock and this video is the closest I've seen to getting a direction on it. Thanks

They sell already widened fenders without flares. I bought the 3” rear and 2” fronts.

@backyardbuild3 жыл бұрын
Hey Larry. I really dont know howerer i would believe that those 2 wires are a running light and a blinker using the chassis/body steel as the gnd. So you can do what i did and change out the bulb socker for a 1157 bulb and that should work.
