If you are looking at the straight in side shot and notice that the rear wheel is not centered , that will be corrected we had a couple issues when we got to SEMA , I made the driveshaft too long and had to pull it and when I pulled it the pinion angle took a dive and pulled it all forward ! I have a few things to correct next week....

One of these days when u take a breath....we need photos of the valve covers in mock up...would love to see how they are fitted.....would love a copy of those on mine....lol....u know i wouldn't do that!!!!.....get some rest.....jim

it be better to spread it over two years less stress that way and more chance to collect free goodies
you could still use cloud and peg on the next sema maibe you just need to put some other stuff in them to satisfy the people of the company the trucks represent (like audio stuff or the newest airride controller ) but they still would be fresh trucks and a good representation of the sloshtubs

I stumbled across that thing a year or two ago and couldn't believe it! I posted a link on my thread like I was the only one that had ever seen it. Sooo Rad! I'd love to see a shot of Peg layin next to the 10 second hay hauler!

when i saw the first clips on you tube i thought it was turbocharged , never did see detailed pictures from under the hood or de specs on the engine like if they use an original or aftermarket block i only know its a 4 bolt big block and nos injected

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
 
I was rereading this thread again, admiring the work and I noticed that you abandoned the stamped GMC on the rear panel. Why is that?

Congratulations on the successful trip to SEMA!

67cheby 11-16-2013 10:41 AM

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
 
the rear panel where i welded in the GMC came out to uneven to get it body worked out smooth, so we had to cover it

The owner is a very humble man. He said he has always wanted to go fast and he put everything he had into the truck. He remodeled a kitchen to pay for the trucks drive train. he said he was broke but he went for it and now he is on tv. It's an awesome story. He jumped on it leaving the parking lot and the truck twisted it was cool as hell

The Blazer looks killer Mike and congrats on making show! I keep spotting little details like the Tubz logo in the headliner. You gotta put up a photo spread for us and tell the story of your scramble before SEMA!
