Keep us posted. Your doing a awsome job.

GMC71k20 · 08-30-2004, 02:03 PM

do you sell that rear sliding window, if so how much is it?

Sweet72 · 08-30-2004, 02:41 PM

Looks great. Keep the progress pics coming, we can all use some motivation. Progress on my GMC has been at a virtual stand still since I rebuilt, painted and installed my TH350 tranny last winter.

**Classic Heartbeat** · 08-30-2004, 03:28 PM

Thanks again for the compliments. GMC71k20, Yes I do sell these sliders. They are $129.95 and come in clear, light grey, and dark tints. Here is a link to where I have them on my website: http://www.classicheartbeat.com/Accessories.htm The one on my truck is the light grey tint. WES www.ClassicHeartbeat.com

red71cheyenne · 08-30-2004, 09:34 PM

Sweet! That is looking good Wes! I like that paint. Can't wait to see it done. Jeff.

**Classic Heartbeat** · 08-31-2004, 10:43 AM

Thank you Jeff. I appriciate it. I think that I will trailer it and have one of my exhaust systems installed on it this weak. WES www.ClassicHeartbeat.com
