I know I missed you not having it at Battle in Bama this year, but I hope you'll bring it to the Southeastern ALL Chevy/GMC Truck Nationals.

Apparently I got lucky with the first two bows only taking an hour apiece, as the last one took two hours....:waah: Oh well, it's done and I think it came out pretty well. My buddy also got a little more done on the sub box, can't wait to see what it looks like done.

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
The bows came out great. Took a lot of patience. What was fighting you?

I also mounted a toggle switch to work as a headlight dimmer since I had to remove the factory one (due to the kick panel speaker pod interference). Not my most creative solution, but it works and can be easily undone if I come up with something better. |

Here's a better picture of the headliner and a little more work completed on the sub box.

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
Ahh - so that's what you're doing back there. Hadn't thought about a speaker box. Still kicking around that kind-of a looks like a spare box, but maybe as a tool kit and air compressor storage.
If you get a chance think you could get some better pictures of the bows you installed? Really interested in seeing what you did to yours. |

Hey Rob, I saw this from Flaming River a while ago. Not sure if the juice ($99 + gotta disassemble the steering column) is worth the squeeze, but just wanted to give you an option.

Making progress on the sub box. Should have it covered by this weekend. Still trying to figure out the grill cover. I also wired in a GBCM (generator battery control module) that controls the alternator output. Before the alternator was just defaulting to 13.7 V (13.1 on the gauge). Now it will vary the voltage based on demand, battery state, driving conditions etc. It's a pretty "smart" little module. Here's a good write-up on it if you are interested:

What a big difference! Looks better with the trim on. Great job Rob!

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
I liked it without the trim. With the trim, man of man....:metal:
|
Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
Trim looks awesome on there!

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
How are you locating your upper holes?
|
Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
Finally! So much YES!

I received my sub box speaker grill from Greg @ Neely Precision Machining in Tennessee (http://www.neelyprecision.com/). What a great job by Greg! He turned my vision into a reality, :metal: and I can't thank him enough. If you need something custom done, I highly recommend him, :thumbs:. Just need to polish it and get it mounted, :metal::metal::metal::metal::metal::metal: |
Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
Looks great!!! Greg does great work and can handle anything from custom to full production work.

The trim ring for the back hatch ... very NICE Gonna have to have Greg CNC me similar. He and his group do some good work, they are down the road a piece from me, but I see Greg usually during our Open Car Show in the Fall, his suburban got "Best in Show" last year But that is a very nice touch. |
Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)
