Well I've had some bad luck recovering my seats. Went to a shop that I've used a few times and had good luck but new owners took over and my seat covers were not up to the level this truck is going to be built to. So I took it to another guy that I heard about from a friend and he said I have to recover the whole seat (minus the dark red pleats). No saving the junk work so I guess that will happen this summer sometime. Meanwhile I mounted these skirts to the base of the seat to finish off the base and a place to mount the switch. Doesn't matter if I damage the vinyl I guess. My guy said he will make it so the vinyl doesn't bunch up in the front like it does now .

Not sure if I'm going to put these into the back of the buddy seat but I bought them just in case. I hate not having drink holders. But they might really change that vintage appearance.

I think im going to skip the cup holders. I cant get myself to like the look. Well I want to keep the grain look in the metal on the seat skirts so that means I can't fill any holes in them. So I have to keep the plaquard that cadillac put on all passenger side skirts because it mounts with screws. So I took it and sanded off all the engraving so I can have new engraving put on for my truck. I'm not sure what I'm going g to put on it. Any ideas from you guys?

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
Interior by Rod, Body by GMC
or GMC (large on the raised portion) and Super Custom following the shape of the emblem (you could also invert the emblem and have Super custom on the bottom) or GMC ENSpired |
Re: 67 GMC super custom build
I was thinking kind of what you said with the gmc on the reaised and super custom in the bottom. The enspired is funny too lol.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
I agree on GMC on the raised portion and SUPER CUSTOM under it. Cool idea!

Had some of my dash together so I took a picture of all the lights. I'm loving the green

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
That's cool. Was it alot of work to switch everything to green?

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
No I just used led bulbs. They look sharp and use less power.

I found a small fuse box online and I purchased it. I'm going to add my gear vendor, heated seats fuses into it and whatever else I've added.

So I was packing up my original 67 door remotes i sold to kyleseal and I got to thinking I'd like to keep my 67 inner door control levers if I could make them work with the 72 door panels so I did a small modification to the 72 remotes I have to use with these door panels to let them accept the 67 handles.

I got the seat bottom covers painted last night. Not sure why they look more pale in these pictures. They look fine in person. That's odd.

Getting the holes for my mouldings finished up. U had to get nos eyebrow mouldings for the tail light pieces. The aftermarket ones I had In no way, shape or form could possibly even be manipulated to fit on. Total junk. The rest are mar-K and fit well but I was missing one set of clips for the upper gate mouldings.

It looks great! You should show us more often… ;) |
Re: 67 GMC super custom build
It's funny that you say that because it seems like I often have it together then take it apart to fit something then take it apart again but rarely take photos of the complete unit. Hopefully soon it will be all 1 color. My kids call it the rainbow truck.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
Looks good. I love that 67-68 trim molding 1000x better than the giant 69-72 strips. Just a cleaner sleeker look IMO
