Did you use the same holes the original pedal plate was using? Only hole you had to drill was for the cable correct?

Yes I used the same mounting holes for the pedal. Only drilled the one 1/2" hole for the cable and then file it square and that was it.

Nice, I like those

shawno72 · 01-26-2013, 09:26 PM

Thanks Rus I was happy with the fact that they only cost $36. That TruckShop both was packed and their prices were good and you could even barter if you bought multiple items

Should of bought the comfort grip steering wheel

Thanks Rick. Man I really wanted to stay and talk for a while and look at your truck until that lady went Nazi on us. My wife said she was just staring out at us

Oh well we will have to get together for some photos of the trucks. Thanks on the compliment.

What truck doors got the "custom" badge and what truck doors got the "cst" badge.
I realize it was a 67-68 trim piece.

I thought "cst" was a 69-72 blazer thing.

Thanks for the thread Kieth. I do know that the 67 truck my seats came out of was a CST and had these style door badges. The spid also showed custom sport truck. I always assumed the custom level was the same as my 72 custom deluxe. Chrome window trim and chrome vent wing windows with chrome interior goodies. I also am pretty sure that only the CST trucks had buddy buckets. With all the options I have added to this tuck I just felt that the CST badges were appropriate.

butternut1972 · 01-27-2013, 02:20 AM

I dig the emblems....I need a Patina'd truck, so cool!

shawno72 · 01-27-2013, 06:38 AM

Thanks butternut. One of the many joys of having a patina truck is the lack of worry when parking in parking lots. You can park right in front and no cares if it gets a ding or dent.

Getting closer. Got the brake calipers today. The one item left to get for the disc brake swap is the hard line kit.

shawno72 · 01-29-2013, 02:42 PM

Just walked back from the tranny shop next door and here it is apart, should be back together today or tomorrow hopefully. They are doing this in between regular customers so I have to be patient.
