  1. What I usually do when it's polished aluminum is hit it with a acid like aluminum brightener sprayed on let it sit for no more then a min then rinse with water, then u have the clean surface, then I used a cutting type polish and clean off then last I use mothers aluminum polish and it's a mirror finish every time it takes a while but it's worth it

  2. By 2015 any truck with a type 2 permit that is 2006 or newer must have a steerable/trackable third axle. A type 2 permit is a grandfather downstate permit which makes the truck able to carry between 76,000-80,000 depending on tires front axle etc. they will be able to keep the type one permit which will probably give it somewhere around 67,000. If the truck is older then 2006 then ur grandfathered in and in the clear for now like me lol

  3. You know in 89 that type of pickup was an oddity in Bergen county. Not many guys had one. I gotta think. I know I saved 3 grand going to Breakey. I remember, $22,000.00 no money down $400.00 per month. That was a lot of money back then. I'll take a new pic today. Mack1928 those trucks are in really good shape. The green 1954 looks similar to mine. I guess the 2500 has a DT in it?. That Chevy is in good shape.

    Cheers, Rob

    The green 1954 is my favorite little truck that truck when we bought had 60k original miles and u could eat off the floor zero rust was a local guys pride and joy who bought it brand new its a shame we converted it into a snow truck and gave it the death sentence but it's getting sandblasted and painted our color this spring, the s2500 was an old Nassau county truck with a dt and straight 7 spd fun to drive sold her last year just to far gone to fix up again and the Chevy is a 454 4spd with a/c 5500 original miles was a brush fire truck it's like a little time capsel so much fun to drive!
