Got all the wiring in the driver door done. The thermometer light and the power windows.

Thinking about adding a original style tool box in the bed side. Would be real nice to store extra stuff. Her is pic' of another members work. Just not sure how to make the 67 68 moulding work with this set up.

Incredible build. If you still need a shift indicator let me know, I've got one I'm not using.

I just bought one on the weekend

I just came across your build. You've done some great work on it. Don't be surprised when you see some of your ideas popping up on other builds on here.

[Beaumont@]

Wow you take attention to detail to another level. Awesome build can't wait to see what it looks like when done.

[chewychevy67]

Thanks for the words guys. Really appreciate it. I have located a bed side tool box close to home so I am going to hopefully pick it up next weekend. I will be working it into the passenger side of the bed just as if it were factory.

I got some Cadillac power seat stuff and I am toying with them. I took out the forward and backward track and I can make it work very nicely. Only thing is it makes my seats sit 1" higher because of the worm gear mechanism. Not sure if that will make a big difference. I can make it completely reversible so well see. I will make both passenger and driver power if I do this. left track is the power one and the right is stock in the pic.

Here are the sliders all cleaned and greased. Going to have to make shorter cables.

Couldn't stop reading, the things you done and are doing, well done and great. Sure is and gonna be one heck of a nice truck. Ya know, I thought white top all the way but with that chrome trim, man I say all black now. That is one truck I'd like to see when done. You sure you can't do all the body work yourself, lol
Thanks for the boost

I'm glad you like it. Here is a picture of the driver side power seat tracks on the frame. I have another motor so I may buy another set of tracks and make the pass power too. Well see.

[chewychevy67]

This is how much higher the seat will sit. Only 1".

[chewychevy67]

Well I guess I'm doing The pass side too. Here's how it lays out. Hope it does not turn upside down. My phone does that sometimes. I think I know how I'm going to do the switches without touching the seat material but I'll leave that for later.

[chewychevy67]

Here is the tool box I pick up close to home. It will need some work but that's ok.

The underside with the seat mounted

[CanadianK20]

I was going to ask for some pics once you got the box in but judging from the documentation you've done up to now it didn't matter I forgot. Looks great and getting better. Nice work!

[chewychevy67]

Yeah I'm going to bring it to James next week and he is going to start installing it into the pass bedside. I'm super excited about it. I'll make sure you get to see the pictures.

[chewychevy67]

I added these pieces under the vent windows. they came on some 70-71 blazers to help tighten up the door seal. kind of the pre-version of the 72 doors.

[chewychevy67]

Chad did a passenger side view rendering of my truck with the tool box in the bed side. here it is with a white and black roof.

[chewychevy67]

I got a original style gear selector lens. with the telescopic column this was the most challenging thing to make the gear selector light up properly. moved the neutral switch up and had to shorten the intermediate shaft and the column mods are complete.

[chewychevy67]

Got the driver side sliders done tonight. I moved the pins so the seat can only go so far back and it won't hit the back wall of the cab.

[chewychevy67]

I had to change my motor location. If I mount it here the seat moves faster and the cables don't hack to bend.

[chewychevy67]

Here is how the bottom of the seat mounted looks. If you wanted to go back to the manual sliders this is completely reversable.
