FarmTruk · 01-06-2007, 02:22 PM

Last two...I haven't had a chance to really look at the pics myself, but I did notice/like the beverage holder on the radiator support.

Last two I got from pkj...enjoy.

pkj · 01-06-2007, 09:22 PM

thanks farm truk for posting these. since this truck is my new beer drinking buddy i made the rad. cover. it also holds tools and spark plugs

72dually · 01-06-2007, 09:39 PM

Wow..........Thats looking nice

poorboy · 01-06-2007, 10:10 PM

That thing is sweet. Where did you get your air cleaner? Or is it custom made?

cgoodwin · 01-06-2007, 11:38 PM

any directions on making that radiator cover?

should fit a 71?

Nice project!!!!

the 07 rims look good also. kind of making me think about trying that also.

pkj · 01-07-2007, 11:24 AM

thanks everyone.
cgoodwin, i made the mold, its a black chrome abs material, i can make it in differant finishs, or paintable.
poorboy, i made it, its coming off today as i start test fitting somethind else i want to use.

ChevyDude · 01-07-2007, 12:46 PM

Silver color exchange for factory Black parts!! Hood hinge, frame, radiator hold downs....I like it....seems like I've seen that done before, hmmmmm?
Wonder where??? What did you use for the silver color?

Nice Job!!!

Sport/Truck · 01-07-2007, 12:54 PM

Sweet! I like the cup holder too.

pkj · 01-07-2007, 01:01 PM

chevydude it is the same color gm uses on their hhr flat silver trim exterior parts like door handels, mirrors,etc. i was able to duplicate it. main differance is i dont use flat clear. yes silver has been done by members before that posted pics. nice thing is it dosent show dust like black. pkj

68GMC454 · 01-07-2007, 01:19 PM

well all i can say is,,i cant wait to see the rest of it,,the air clener is killer,,i wouldnt mind one likt that,,but darn sure would love to get ahold of the radiator cover....i dont drink,,but heck it should hold a mountain dew to...
great job so far

pkj · 01-07-2007, 01:39 PM

i might be able to make some of those parts available. i have a huge amount of time in making the tooling. hate to put dollar value on my time, but if there is an intreast in these parts pm me. i really like to trade more fun. i hope this isnt getting into a piss off the mods area. thanks, pkj

ChevyDude · 01-07-2007, 03:02 PM

I was kidding, I love the silver...my Lil' Red is done up in Hammered Silver by Rustoleum.

cgoodwin · 01-07-2007, 07:06 PM

I'm in on the radiator cover idea. Could you use the same materials and fab up some speaker enclosures for the fresh air vent area? Just a thought.

FarmTruk · 01-07-2007, 09:21 PM

Gotcha !!

67Fleet · 01-07-2007, 09:28 PM

Wow, pkj, that is just awesome! I can't wait to see the rest of the truck!

Coleman · 01-07-2007, 10:54 PM

So I got to ask what color is this, I like it, I was almost ready to paint my truck the 68 50th gold and white but I'm thinking about this color, kind of an almond or light mustard color, any color codes?

FarmTruk · 01-07-2007, 11:24 PM

pkj...Are these the late model Tahoe wheels you were posting ?'s about earlier? They look like they fit pretty good, and I love the look.

pkj · 01-08-2007, 07:58 AM

hey guys thanks for compliments. seems like a lot of intreast in the rad. cover. before i make that avilable to anyone that wants it, look close at the pics again. i am not sure if it will fit over a normal fan shroud. i made my own shroud to except a pair of late model gm fans i got from shifty.
farmtruk yes those are 07 tahoe 20s
coleman that is the original light yellow for that year, i think it was used several years under differant names. i changed the code so i could spray base coat/clear coat. holler if you need the code.
