Re: Project Grande Slam: Coley's Hot Rod Shop
Great news Chad, I'm glad to hear your back. Can't wait to see some updates on both trucks. and your right it's no fun doing this hobby by yourself, you need people to share it with.

Re: Project Grande Slam: Coley's Hot Rod Shop
Did you just repaint or did you go with new?

Re: Project Grande Slam: Coley's Hot Rod Shop
Awesome! It would have sucked not so see you around the forum sharing your knowledge and advice. Not to mention not getting to see your build threads progress. Great to see you're back.

Re: Project Grande Slam: Coley's Hot Rod Shop
Concentrating on the interior and finishing up the bed while we have it off. I have decided to put my black buckets in the GMC, black CST door panels and just little hints of tan here and there. GMC logo in the console, sun visors, headliner would be tan. Of course the column, glove box, across the top of the dash, etc.
I have two consoles, one for my stepper and another I am restoring now for the GMC. I'm thinking maybe a GMC logo in the floor mats or something, hard to say but it looks good with black / tan. I think I'm just going to put a picture of all the wheels I like on my dart board. Close my eyes and one dart, one shot. That's the wheel. But, wheels will be last. It may be spring though. Sigh.

Re: Project Grande Slam: Coley's Hot Rod Shop
Good choice on doing the wheels last.
Plus alot of new wheels will debut at SEMA in November,... or come out in 2013. You may have more choices. Ha.

Re: Project Grande Slam: Coley's Hot Rod Shop
Yes the wheels are a BIG decision, I am actually contemplating going back with the original stock steel wheels with full wheel covers.

Re: Project Grande Slam: Coley's Hot Rod Shop
Threw a couple wrenches, slammed a few doors.. now, Im over it. Where was I again? Hehe..
Dad is still working on the bucket seat brackets. We have one in mock up now and its in my truck. It sits about an inch lower in the back and we're still adjusting the front part / height of the seat. The plan is to offer the brackets with .5" plates to give you more or less tilt to the seat. More to come soon. Posted via Mobile Device
