Nice! So what products/process did you use to remove all those micro scratches? My gauge cluster lens is showing it’s age.

So was the 3.4 swap worth it? Looks great!

Stunning! Unless we find panels for our 88 we'll never get it that nice. Front fenders are easy to find but not rear panels. OR they are stupid expensive.

I'm assuming everything is rusty where you are? That sucks!

Thank you! I was on the fence about them when i first put them on. I wouldn't take em off now!

I should really get some pictures up of the 88. In general although it's wet not a lot of chemicals are used but I think ours might have had it's start in Maryland. I think one year on the east coast (more specifically the north east) is worse than 30 years in the PNW. Maybe.

Everything else is in decent shape just the front fenders and rear panels and the tailgate.
