Re: My 52 GMC Build
Thanks Guys.
So a week ago we went away for the weekend with the truck and trailer. On the way home Sunday the weather was hot, 96* and 110* with humidity. The truck temperature stayed right at 190*, so all my cooling modifications work great. Yay. |
Re: My 52 GMC Build
I’m going to let let you keep the heat and humidity. Congrats on keeping your cool.

Had a failure on one of my air ride switches. The one that controls the 2 rear bags, seems like the pivot pin broke on the toggle. Makes it just flop around and do nothing. I had to use both rear switches to lift the rear for 2 days till I could fix it. This is the inside of the switch box. 11,400 mi and counting.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Boy O Boy, doing two burn outs side by side and getting them to match, that's some skill.
Bob, couldn't help myself, good burn out:burnout::cf:...Jim |

So my next 50's truck build is still a few years off but I sort of started getting pieces together.
This is my new daily driver '85 s10 that I will use the frame of. Also I bought a VW 1.9L TDI with a 5 speed that I will put into the s10 next summer, so the drive train will be all ready for the old truck in a few years. It will be 2wd. Attachment 1801383 Attachment 1801384 |
Re: My 52 GMC Build
Is it as clean as it looks in the pics? Wow! It needs a 5.3l LS swap and a set of 5 spoke 3rd gen Camaro wheels!
|
Re: My 52 GMC Build
Nice looking S-10. I’m interested in seeing the swap.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Awesome burnout

Re: My 52 GMC Build

So our beloved '87 Jimmy is gone :buh:. Bought it in Phenix AZ 4 years ago drove it home, it was my daily for 4 years and we sold it for $4700 more than we bought it for. The guy that bought it said he was going to fix it up like new and bring it back to show us.

Re: My 52 GMC Build

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Sorry to see it go but I'm sure it is helping fund something cool down the road!

Last Sunday went to a "Cars n'coffee" meet in Toronto about 1.5hrs away. Wow the amount of money there was mind blowing.
Not sure if the Bugatti Chiron made my truck worth more or his car worth less LOL. Never thought I would see a $2.6 million dollar car driving around. Cruised there with my friend and his Dodge. Attachment 1809343 Attachment 1809344 Attachment 1809345 Attachment 1809346 Attachment 1809347 |

So Monday I took my truck in to Tom's Upholstery to get carpet made for my truck. As for now it is the last piece of the puzzle, the truck is done! I have a lot of trouble getting other people to do stuff on my vehicles especially custom work. Tom's was recommended to me from some high end hot rod shops in the area and they didn't disappoint. It looks like it came from the factory. I'm so happy, they did more than I asked for and the truck is so quiet inside now.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Been off for a while, just read back a few pages.
Glad you still making those black lines :lol: That S10 looks really nice, looking forward to see what you make of it. As for the last set of pictures, I agree with everybody else, pic 5 is awesome!! Everybody can buy 2.6 miljon car, but it takes Skill to build a truck like yours! Btw, I come across more and more pics of your truck on Instagram :metal: You make the world happy:lol::metal: |

Looks great! That’s a nice job and a great looking interior. This is good inspiration for me, I’ve been sidetracked by other projects and need to get back on the truck and finish it off. |
Re: My 52 GMC Build
Interior looks fantastic!
