Re: LT1 Burbs 65 Stock SW Build
Just catching up on my thread, restored my AC oil cap, although I believe the decal is the wrong one. I believe the right one is blue/white , anyone weigh in.Hopefully this weekend I will mate the motor trans with the frame to give me some room in the shop.

Re: LT1 Burbs 65 Stock SW Build
Cool build, stock everything. That truck is full of options too. That junk on the trans will come off easy with dry ice blasting, and no damage or pitting on the case.

Re: LT1 Burbs 65 Stock SW Build
Dropped the cab off at the media blasters and just picked it up so let the fun begin. I was happy to see the cab corners were nice but there was a few dents I didn't know about. At least the expensive stuff is done, now its just time.

Re: LT1 Burbs 65 Stock SW Build
If you don't mind me asking how much did it cost to blast and coat the cab? I'm wanting to do the same.
