Alright Joe, I had my daughters record some sound today and they tried to show me how to upload to the laptop. well they got mad and I got a drink...I will try at work tommorrow to upload:lol:

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

That is some nice work on the exhaust. I can't wait to hear it as well.

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

looks effin' sweet!

what is the angle on those tips? I just might have to steal her idea. :lol:

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

Thanks Alan, hope I can upload it tommorrow.

Thanks, Andrew
I'm no expert on angles but it's what ever they sell. she just wanted it to be even with the bed lines, hope that makes sense.

Andrew, You ought to cruise on down this Saturday.

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

Nice!!!! I angled mine down and hid them behind the bedsides....makes a ton of noise reflecting off the pavement and dusts up like Im trying to lay a smoke screen. I think thats a better choice.

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

Let's try this.....Hope it works Joe

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

Hey! I could hear it. Good job. Can you pull the truck into the gerage so we can hear both sides at once? I could tell by the look in her eye that shell never let dad have his truck back again.:lol:

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

So after you hand the keys over do you get the shlong cycle or the chopper bike?

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

I'm taken the shloooong cycle so I can pick up hitch hikers:lol:

There's a local car show this weekend and they have a bike show for the kids to enter, and my daughter wants to enter the chopper.:metal:

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

4D,
I don't know if you still want flat black or not? If so, I suggest the following link. I prefer the look of satin black, instead of flat black but that is up to you, of course. This paint is pretty good for the price.:metal: It also comes pre-proportioned - 3/4 gallon paint to 1/4 gallon activator. I have a Monte Carlo in my garage that I am thinking of using this on.

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

Thanks for the link Ryan,
My daughter really hasn't decided on what color she wants yet, so untill then we are just haven some fun with it. And we are both kinda learning at the same time.:lol:

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

Love your truck, man. It is stinkin' awesome!

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

Thanks, Ryan

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

Yea. But we need more pics though.

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

pictures of what.....?
what Ive been working on?

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

My Daughter was looking at the truck yesterday and wanted to try a different look around the small back window. I told her if she didn't like it we can always change it back. Will finish it tonight and post more pictures later.

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

Received my tailgate yesterday from Morton (283man) Thanks Morton.

Jason your thoughts or anyone else on what to do for latching.

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

you could go the "protrash" route and use those sliding door locks from the hardware store. cheap, effective, and invisible from the rear

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

Joe, do you have a link? or Jeff can you hook me up with some info on your latches?

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

like this

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

Thanks Joe...

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

Thats what I was thinking also. Mar-k has a kit to get rid of your chains to.

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

That's gonna look great. I really dig the shaved tailgate look...

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

These are similar to what I used....just mount 'em and ditch the small piece. Then drill a hole into the big side post in the bedside and call it done. Simple and effective.

Truck is really looking cool, 4D.:metal:

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

Thanks Jason

Thanks Cort

Thanks Jeff, Does yours rattle any?

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

What are you talkin about? These trucks don't rattle.
