been doing a little work on the bump

Post by Jarred Hodges »

I have been working on my old truck a little. I have always had just 1 mirror so I swapped the ones off my parts truck onto it

I have also done a little to the interior. When I got it there was no sunvisors glovebox insert or radio plate at all. I plan to paint the visors black but haven't yet. I also plan on getting a cd player when I can afford to

sunvisors I had to make sure they fit

I always keep my vehicles clean as you can tell

Mirrors on the passenger side are a big help with all the little rice burners on the road, I drove over the nose of one making a right turn at a light. He got the ticket and had to pay for the damages.

YES! There is a lot of "BS" with Texas and their damn front tags. I hate having that crap stuck on the windshield to :x

Oklahoma has no front tag and nothing on the windshield. Not even an inspection, just clean looking.
I got busted a few years ago for having the windshield on my 95 Mustang tinted. Mister THP told me there was to be "nothing" below the As-1 line on the top of the windshield.
He wasnt amused when i told him that my rear view mirror, bottom of my sun visors and those damn stickers were all below that stupid As-1 line.
That cost me a real quick $115.00.

Well you never argue witht the man on the side of the road, You get pictures and other evidance and see his arse in court.

appearantly in missouri you can run without the front plate until they stop you for something else and then its a btw incorrect display of motor vehicle license. Cuase they won't just pull you for that, and oddly if your a commercial truck or over 12k pounds you only have to display the front tag.

The thing that gets me is the manifacturers don't have to provide a place for the front tag even in states that require the front tag. :hmm:

It looks like the whole country should either be front or rear tag. In alabama it is rear tag and I belive georgia and tennessee are too.
