Looks like Root and Rocky are gonna get everything in that neck of the woods. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif HRP

Rocky
01-01-2004, 09:01 PM
Yeah, the lack of a 34 belt line molding and 33-34 welded-in firewall says it's a 33. It can't be a 32 onna counta 33 and 34 have the raised molding across the roof, just behind the visor and 32's didn't.
BTW, did I mention you suck? That cab is 23% better than the old Rocky 33 cab and I actually hadda pay for mine..
