i had to cut the shift arm because I forgot to slide the outer tube before welding. iIt is a lot more room in the cab. Next step I think I will raise the bracket a little higher to hide the lower bracket and tighten the gap at the dash

Decided my fire wall needed some bling so I cut up the original valve cover and buffed it so it would look worn. Name:  015.jpg

Re: My 54 GMC Build

Not much going on with this project. I have been working on a 49 Olds Woodie and a 49 Ford Woodie lately, but hopefully will get back to this project next month. Funny how time flies on these builds.

Re: My 54 GMC Build

Posted via Mobile Devicemoved the oil cooler to under because the radiator location was where the grill attached. The cooling fan is going to be pushing and when I add the ac unit it will have to fit in there some where too. So under is it.

Re: My 54 GMC Build

Posted via Mobile Devicewhile working the fender and hood and waiting for high build to dry I started outing the bed back together. Go to get the height right for the running boards and the side aprons. I cut the gas filler door out of the 93 truck so I am going to reuse it. Thinking about making a tool box with a removable bottom so if the fuel pump fails I don't have to drop the tank. Anyway lots of measuring
