Cool lookin headlight Rev!!
Anyway to retrofit the internal reflector to a modern halogen or xenon type to take advantage of the wide field of illumination these new designs put out?

Mandilon is probably clutching his chest and gasping for air right about now.
Four pics of a "hood" right in a row. :lol: :lol: :lol: With the damage it's even less fuel efficient. :lol: You need to wash that thing Rev!

BTW, if anyone has some use for a slightly bent bumper, a set of 379 headlights, or a hail damaged passenger side fender, moto-mirrors, visor, quarter fenders, or Taylor Wing, let me know. I'll let them go cheap. :wink:

What do have? 379 factory headlights (the driver's side one is slightly bent, but no cracks. Passenger side is undamaged) Texas style bumper (still fairly straight) Passenger side front fender (small hail dings, but they could be pounded out pretty easily) All Peterbilt badges Pull handle off of the hood Moto Mirrors and spot mirrors (hail damage) Visor (slight hail damage) Taylor Wing (hail damage and tree damage - might be able to be pounded out) Quarter fenders (driver's side is bent, but could easily be repaired) Rear mudflap bracket, driver's side only Sections of the grill surround (top section and passenger side section are undamaged) Passenger side fender bracket (undamaged) Make me an offer. :wink:

I was talking to a windshield guy the other day & he mentioned a truck he ran into that had a custom visor on it. It was so close to the glass they had to pull the headliner down & remove the visor before he could change the windshield. Just thought i'ld mention it.

That's power steering fluid all over the side of the hood (from the accident).
