Thanks Guys

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

So with how much I have been driving the truck this year. My music situation was getting annoying (plug headphone jack into phone, turn on amp, select music and adjust). So I went out and got a sweet deck, no CD. It is half the depth of a regular deck. The amp now powers a 10" sub behind the seat and I mounted the deck in the back of the glove box. Works and sounds great. :metal:

Today I finally got to installing the door to floor wind lance. That will stop the one draft I have in the truck. I had them for about a year but I misplaced the steel keepers.

Nothing like good tunes.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

I've been debating on a stereo setup. Looks like a decent solution.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

nice job, I'v always been a fan of hiding the radio if you are gonna have one. unless its an original or close to it.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Oh it sounds so good!
Ya it doesn't take up any space for the deck.
Thanks I agree.

That's awesome! Glad things are rolling along!

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Very cool, I'm sure it will feel like forever now for ya. :lol:

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Ya it's about time. I'm not used to construction time.
So far I'm happy with how far they got.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

with your truck building ability, I'm surprise you aint building your own garage!!! but will be nice to just have someone else do all that work and you can save your energy for a new killer build (you're taking my COE home right!!!)

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Ya well I have tried over and over, I still cant work with wood. Having someone build it will get it built so much faster. COE sure I would love to take it home and work on it!! Wait are you giving it to me? ;)

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Today was a lot of back and forth with the skid steer, with the occasional tamping. 8 of these bins of top soil out and there will be 10-12 tri-axle of A-gravel in to get grade. They have to go a long way through my garage. They should be done filling and packing by the end of today.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Looks awesome, what is the time frame for the building

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

What size garage. how tall? in floor heat?

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

They should pour concrete next week and frame the week after.
30'W 40'D 18' tall. Yes in floor heat.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
 

Lowered

You're gonna feel like you died and gone to heaven. Shop looks fun.
Starting to frame my "Shed" last week, looking forward to see how you install the radiant heating system. Mines hydronic with 1/2 inch red pex, on 12" centers.

Keep on keepin on
