Re: What parts aren't out there?

If you're talking about stamping pieces.I think a shaved cowl would go.Also a inner/outer roof maybe from the beltline up.Maybe a single piece floor replacement.

I have a cowl coming in this week to send out. By "Shaved" do you mean just without antenna hole?

The front inner roof is available now. If you can; PM me a pic of what you're thinking.

YES! Just like the pie cut projects you see. A "stock" version and a cowl version.

Re: What parts aren't out there?

If someone can send a picture of the inner fender with the area you'd like to see made as a seperate piece we can easily make that from the existing tool.

Here's a picture to start with:

I think the 67-68 hoods built to fit 69-72 front clip would be a good one!!!!!!!!!

I think he means one without the "grills" and without the antenna hole. Sign me up for one of those.

I would buy a couple of them, help keep the junk out of the cowl area and keep the rust issues down. I have a fiberglass version of the cowl on my 56 and love it.

x2 on the Blazer rear carpet hold down trim & rear interior side panels. Also would really like to see hold down brackets for the rear seat made for 69-72 Blazers.

Re: What parts aren't out there?

I would like to see Pointer Housings from 69 and 70 Steering columns made. The originals are plasic and crack. They already make 71-71 Pointer Housings.

I have one that should be very easy and most all stepside owners might like this. Front patch panel for stepside fenders. ALL of them seem to rust out..

Re: What parts aren't out there?

What about a cowl induction hood that was modeled after a 70 to 72 Chevelle cowl induction hood, that works just like the original, but on our trucks. I always thought that would look better than the cowl induction hoods out their right now.
