I agree these trucks can consume you! And parts aren't cheap? I'll admit living here is like living on Vacation.

Re: 67c10build

Thanks Mud man the funny thing is if you saw the color on the car it came on ( 2008 HHR) you'd scratch your head? But fortunately I had a customer with foresight! We did tweak it a little.

I have 2 good friends that paint cars and another that airbrushes cars, helmets, and whatever you bring him, so have seen a few tricks, all I know is it is cool.

Re: 67c10build

The blue inside the white with the chrome trim really sets it off, a lot just go white, nice difference a small touch does for it.

Re: 67c10build

Thanks mud man! It seems most people go with black inserts I just thought the blue would pop with the chrome? And it's actually a cream color but we had a cloud cover when I shot this.

Re: 67c10build

I've had some people ask about the 6.0 install? It's a 2006 1500 6.0/4L80E with 34k miles it installed easy I did modify the frame slightly for the AC compressor clearance I used a 71c10 big block radiator with Trans cooler and a shortened 73 Malibu 350 lower radiator hose I'm having a new harness made because I want things cleaned up a bit I'm using a sure fit vintage air! Hopefully it'll look somewhat factory with new school twist???
