I like the gasser. I don’t like the holes. Do it right or don’t do it at all.

I got my ‘79 F250 running smooth as silk and drove it last week! First time it’s moved on its own power, since 1996!

Brakes aren’t completely gone thru but I beat you!

Factory style grille or even that patterned grille stuff they sell at Home Depot that you can cut with tin snips and install. Looks period correct, light, and takes no time. Name:  download (4).jpg

Different versions of the gasser look. While I would prefer the grill over the holes, both are correct.
