Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
Here's how it sits today. It still needs the roof done, third door finished, rear floor covered, complete all body welding (its all just tacked right now), and all that fun bodywork... But I've driven it :) and I'm very happy with the results. The rear needs to come back down and I think there may be some 20's in the near future ;)

Man, the "real thing" looks better than the Photoshop. That is great. I like it. .......................Bamm!

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
I'll say it again, just incredible!!!!! Do you plan on leaving the trim on? I hope so, I think that will help maintain the "factory" look. Keep them pictures coming!!!

I do plan to keep all the trim and the roof rack. The roof rack will be shortened just like the photochop. The upper trim will be easy, but the lower will get tricky. Should be able to use lower rear pieces off a SWB truck, but the strips in front of the rear tires will have to be custom or modify mine. |
Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
very cool, I agree that the real thing looks even better than the Photochop.... How long did that take?

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
Where are the picts? Am I missing something???

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
absolutly bad ass. I can't belive how fast you ripped through that burb. The look is right on the money. Stock trim should complete the phantom vibe well. You got more done in a couple of days than most can accomplish is a couple of years. What's the secret? do you have a starbucks iv line or a never ending supply of red bull? All I know is to duplicate that type of quick progress all that caffeine would have my cut lines as squiggly as a river drawn on a map.
Keep it up! |

FF, I made a spare for you ;)
Looks great. Any plans to get the roof line at the right height (maybe -2")?? |
Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*

That's absolutely INCREDIBLE!!!! I may have to drive to Oregon just to check this beast out, in person. Keep up the great work; I can't wait to see the "Tah-old" done. |

So... Are you like a super body man for a living? Or you just do your own stuff? |

Also what are you using to make you sheetmetal cuts??? - they look very clean and straight - do you use a fence like a block of wood clamped to the long sections of metal like the roof and wheel well cut-outs? Looks Awesome - not sure I would have the guts to do it to a Burb that clean though. |
