The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network - View Single Post - How many non stock items have you added, and what did you use?

I have added power steering and power disks to my truck and a 90 something chevy bench. I have everything to put an under dash A/C in it as well as tilt and cruise from a 79 van, fuel cell to go under the frame. I have also installed switches on the doors to activate my dome light. I would like to put power windows and locks on it. What vehicle, if any, could I get the window regs and motors out of and get them to work on my truck? I think a power lock conversion would be fairly simple since it is just the actuator that goes up and down. I will be returning to the same place I just got my tilt from and pull the lock actuators, door panels (for my son) and switches off of the same 85 truck I got my A/C brackets from. If the motors and/or regs can be modified to use with my 71, I'll pull them as well.
Only items I need now are rockers. Once I get them installed, I will be pulling the body off and cutting the frame down as well as the bed. I'll be able to put all my goodies on when I put it back together as well as painting the cab.
Still looking for that person to trade my very nice 70 clip for a 67 clip...
