cant figure it out.

1969-08 chevy · 06-17-2008, 11:07 PM

hey jacka$$ some how you did post them. I hear the motor but in the pics no ones behind the wheel.

sandking · 06-17-2008, 11:11 PM

Now that you figured it out, post more

72BlckButy · 06-17-2008, 11:21 PM

that is one sweet looking truck but we need more pics!!!!

Hey we're pic whores....

1969-08 chevy · 06-18-2008, 03:54 AM

It has a bit of dust on the black frame and I really had to lower the quality of the pics to get them to upload. And thanks for the comments, I'm getting closer to having it done.

1969-08 chevy · 06-18-2008, 04:03 AM

some more.

1969-08 chevy · 06-18-2008, 04:07 AM

I have a jensen multi media radio. When the screen would come out it hit the dash pad, so I made the black piece to move it out, and now the screen is straight up and down instead of leaned forward.

68alltheway · 06-18-2008, 03:57 AM

nice truck. whats with the radio kit though

68alltheway · 06-18-2008, 04:12 AM

cool, i was wondering why it stuck out like that. but good idea to keep it from hitting. the truck looks damn good though. also where did you get your seats(what model too)

1969-08 chevy · 06-18-2008, 04:18 AM

I got it out of a wrecked 1997 chevy suburban. I like it because it has a pull down concole. The mounting holes were a little narrower than the original seat. The radio looks a little wierd if the screen's not out, but Thats all I could come with. Thanks for the compliment.

Shyguy · 06-18-2008, 10:30 AM

Great pictures, looks like you are making good progress.

That is a nice seat. I put the same one in my '92 K-3500, it is a lot more comfortable than the original one.

1969-08 chevy · 06-18-2008, 02:18 PM

heres some more.

estig70 · 06-18-2008, 02:39 PM

I've got to say it, that is a great looking truck................................BUT, it seems alot of time and money have gone into it to leave those brake lines on it coming off the master cylinder.

Seems all the details have been covered but that.

More pics PLEASE.

Yah, it looks a little goofy. My dad was helping that day, and he didn't quite do them the way I told him to. I was going to change it, but we made all the brake lines, and I don't really want to make any new ones.

Trust me, not picking on you or your truck, mine were done just about the same way as yours when I rebuilt it 11yr ago. Plans are this time to replace them with pre bent line this time.

That is a NICE truck though. What's the specs on the color?

Eric

1969-08 chevy · 06-18-2008, 02:56 PM

Its off the newer chevy trucks. Its called silver birch metallic. It hides dirt really well.

1969-08 chevy · 06-18-2008, 10:58 PM

I have all the gauges, their just not together yet. I'm going to blue lighting for the instrument panel.

Sinisterspeed · 06-18-2008, 11:54 PM

Looks like your building my truck. Same Color (looks like) Seat is close (I used 99 silverado 60/40 w.console) tank, filler neck location, bed wood, column, all pretty close to the same. Here is a pic of my break lines at the master cyl. Since I'm obviously bias... Thats a bad ass truck!! LOL

1969-08 chevy · 06-19-2008, 03:39 PM

why can't putting it back together be as easy and fun as taking it apart

gonline71 · 06-19-2008, 03:45 PM

Beautiful job.....quick question....what did you use for your defrost ducts and where did you get them? I am trying to avoid buying the oem rigid style.

Thanks in advance

I bought replacement ducts from classicparts.com, super easy to install and felt stronger than oem.

What are the wheel specs, look to be 15x8's? What are the tire specs and amount of lift in the suspension?

Thanks,

Eric

Rite now they are 16.5X10 on 36X14.5 super swampers. I have new 16X10 rims and plan to go with 33 inch tires. The lift is with springs only, and is 6 in the front and 4 in the rear. Also my axles are 3/4 ton.

1969-08 chevy · 06-21-2008, 03:13 AM

I will try to get up the pics of my cab seams that no longer exist, I welded them all up. Drip rails, door jams, and front windshield.
