Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

had the white roof photoshoped in on a pic i found to get an idea what it would look like. only thing different would be the grill, mine being a gmc, and fender emblems. everything else would be the same down to the interior color for my build. what do you guys think? would like some opinions as i am kind of torn between the two.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

white top... but then agaqin i might be slightly biased :D

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

Yes, white top.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

On light colors I like the white top but on a dark color I like the solid color.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

after looking through your build thread i am really motivated to go with the white roof. you should post a good pic of your truck for me with your full wheel covers.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

now that i am looking more the white roof looks nice on the black body. one more pic that i like.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

Nice work! I am subscribed. I would leave the added options off the SPID but thats just my opinion. That way, you still keep the originality and yet have the added goodies to enjoy.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

While i was assembling more of my chassis today i decided to get some paint matched and paint my NOS spiral shocks. The paint wasn't all that bad but shelf worn. I masked the decals too instead of removing them so they would look like a factory fresh install.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

Got a set of dodge passenger buddy seat sliders from a member and added them to my buddy frame. They are the exact same sliders gm used on their buddiy seats. just need to get a gm handle for the other side so they look the same. I hope to get my seat covers at the end of january so i can finish up my seats.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

WOW, nice work looks like it is brand new !

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

What year of dodge had those sliders? Is it a car or a truck?

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

I think dodge had optional passenger seat sliders on their truck buckets. I bought them from ledzepp so maby contact him for more info as I am not 100% sure. Will sure make jack accesability much easier.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

Yeah I love how the jack is out of the way on the floor but it's really not very practical... Do you think the factory bench seats make it easier?

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

Bench would be easiest for the jack but the tools under the seat in 67 suck for either seat.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

You come up with all kinds of cool ideas.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

All of your stuff is so nice and clean. Great job!

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

Is that the orignal color on the spiral shocks? Or is that your color theme you are going with.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

Thanks for the kind words. The spiral shocks are the original color. Any of you guys ever used new foam on your seats? I am thinking about putting new foam in my buddies but wow is foam expensive. Just want to make sure its worth it.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

well i decided new foam is a must so i stipped the seat frames today and am going to get Them powder coated before new foams go on them.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

i did the new foam on mine i think it was $280 shipped to me ??

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

looks like u have to sand blast first. power coat needs bare metal to stick.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

I know. I just let the shop do the blasting themselves before they coat. I've had good luck with a local shop.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

today i made my dodge passenger slider lever look identical to my gm original driver side one. Now i just need to get it chromed.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

Beautiful! I need to do this to mine

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

they look good my friend. and keep the pic coming. a picture can say more that a hundred words.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

Hermoso trabajo!

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

Today i cut out the holes where the window cranks were and welded a piece in to cover them. this way ill have no cold drafts from them.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

i did a sample of the stain i plan on using on the bed floor on maple wood. thought i would give you guys a sneek peek at the color.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

I got my seats coated and ready for foam and covers.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

Tonights progress...

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

your details sure are pretty

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

your attention to detail is insane!!!!! keep it up this truck is gonna be sweet

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

few more pictures. I hope i can get the diff gears set up next weekend so i can get the chassis rolling.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

one more with the brake lines installed.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

Looks great!

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

You must work for a bolt distributor. Ever bolt looks brand new. It is a very clean job.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
 

I have a buddy who does zinc plating and he helps me out. I do use new bolts whenever possible but some hardware is impossible to find new.
