Re: My 87 GMC Crew Project

Lol
maybe I need to rethink my interior color.
I have blue front seats, center console, overhead console, full set of power doors, and door panels to go in it....
But the brown/tan would be cool too, maybe cooler

Re: My 87 GMC Crew Project

Finally a sunny day ...... pix of the "custom" interior that I'm starting with but CHANGING!!!:







But after I removed the custom console I set an early K5 unit in its place ...... I will make a decision wether to use a later model console or color match the K5 unit. I'm trying to do a buckets/buckets combo .... I also have 2 K5 consoles:

Re: My 87 GMC Crew Project

Actually the seats are a bit hard in the front & the rear as you can see are suppose to roll out to a bed. I'm Contemplating just covering the rear & that way when I take it someplace I can rest in the rear or the new owner can!!

I've aready got a few in line for it when I get the carb/intake/hei/msd switched out for the efi.

Re: My 87 GMC Crew Project

Man you had sun today?
I'm jealous!
That rear seat is......well.....um.......I can see why your getting rid of it
not really the look I'm going for either...
Thanks for the offer though!!!

I showed the wife OJOE's truck and she has decided that we are gonna put the newer style seats in my CCSB. How can I to argue with that?

Re: My 87 GMC Crew Project

Yes ..... the rear sear ... ah ... bed ..... seat ...... but yes as soon as I get the fronts changed out & decide on the console I'll tackle the rear ..... unless it sells.

Then it's off to a new project.

Re: My 87 GMC Crew Project

AAAHWWW Bro awesome projects!! Love the pipes on the black & purple bike and the up dated tank you put on it, did you make that yourself ? Your Ford truck, gr8 stance and the wheels really make it pop. Please post more pics of your dually. Thanks for droppin' by my build thread.

Re: My 87 GMC Crew Project

I still have the crew ... BGRAFX ... been actually working on it lately & am only needing wiring on the fuel sustem & MSD set up to re-fire the animal.

BC ... as for the purple bike ... exhaust was my fab work along with a lot of small trinkets on the bike. It now resides in Finland with its new owner.

As for the '62 Uni ... it still resides in the Atlanta area with a new owner. I dug it but the sale of my pro street '66 chevy II & the truck have funded the '46 ford cpe. build.

I've removed all original driveline & suspension from it for a chassis works update & BBC/4 speed - pro touring/bonneville racer project. It's at sheppard race cars now doing some frame straightning & up grades to be beefy & workable. I'll update pix soon.
