Thanks,
Clay

White basecoat going on

Dean · 12-16-2003, 09:31 AM

Unmasking before clear. About 10:00 PM Saturday night at this point......

Dean · 12-16-2003, 09:32 AM

Back in the garage. Turned out very good.

Dean · 12-16-2003, 09:33 AM

Front View. Bed is just sitting on frame at this point. I still need to put mounting pads on and etc.

Dean · 12-16-2003, 09:34 AM

Front side view. I sure have a lot of work left to put it all back together.....

Dean · 12-16-2003, 09:35 AM

rear view. maybe I shouldn't put a bedliner in this??

Dean · 12-16-2003, 09:36 AM

Front low view.

Dean · 12-16-2003, 09:42 AM

no, i'm not using these wheels on the truck. I'm just using them to roll it around. It will be getting turbine wheels with 35" BFGs

I'll get that paint code for you. I had to cross reference it for PPG Deltron Basecoat/Clearcoat system. The match was perfect when I compared it to my interior. This truck only had 35,000 miles on it so I doubt it the interior had faded much if any.

Specs on this truck if interested (I still need to reinstall a lot of it):
350, TH350, NP205, 4.56 gears, Detroit locker rear, posi front, tilt, buckets/console, am-fm, ps, pb, Cheyenne package, tinted glass, tow hooks, etc etc. It used to have air but I will probably install aftermarket air in the future.

I hope to have it together in the spring.

man that is awesome. i believe that is the same color my 2wd blazer is

JayDubBlazer · 12-16-2003, 10:07 AM

Man that looks sweet, it is going to be so wicked when it is done.

Dean · 12-16-2003, 01:52 PM

I've made some progress lately considering I was just swapping cabs a little bit ago.

griesel72 · 12-16-2003, 01:57 PM

Very nice dean

I really like that color combo, doesn't seem to be a lot of them around.

What lift do you have on her

Thanks
David

Dean · 12-16-2003, 02:09 PM

4" Skyjacker Softride springs all around. Skyjacker Hydro shocks. I didn't particularly like the Nitro shocks on my other K20s.

griesel72 · 12-16-2003, 02:17 PM

Nice, i'm doing a body swap close to yours, where's the best place to order that lift from and how much $$

thanks
david

Dean · 12-16-2003, 04:17 PM

I order them directly from Skyjacker. I would have to look up the cost. Don't forget the dropped steering arm and new bushings for the front springs' rear upper shackle to frame mount. I also have part number on front/rear brake hoses you will need. Email me anytime at "cody1015@aol.com".

Dean that is just amazing - I bet you are thrilled!
