Good look getting if finished ChevLoRay, It is worth it even if it drains the wallet.

I like it!

Those door panels are sick! And the guages too.

That's a really nice rear tank filler door. Best I have seen, looks factory. Does filler pipe "hump up" into the bed? What vehicle was the donor for the filler door? This is exactly what I want to do. Please share. Can we see some pics concerning this.

Todd 327. I'm not near the truck now, it's my summer home. My friend had that filler cut out already for something else. I'll get the pics that I already have and I'll give the guy a call to see the specific vehicle it came off of if he even knows anymore. It does hump into the box panel and I'll show you pictures of that.

Good job, truck looks great!
Now.................I'm really confused. B.C. plates on a guy from N.Y. truck. But, the truck's at the summer place and you're not near it now. So I'm figuring witness protection or secret agent?

Todd327, the filler door looks to me like a '73-'87 style.

Ha ha. I'm from BC, my wife is from NY and we both live oversees. I keep my truck in BC but I'm only there for six weeks a year in July and August.

daves69 · 08-24-2009, 11:48 AM

Here are the only two pictures I have. I'll get back about where the filler door came from. Also note that this tank is off an 80's blazer that filled on the passenger side. Most rear tanks I see fill on the drivers side.

Great job¡¡¡¡ i like door panels i want to know if you took them from a newest truck adapt them give me ideas, i also have a c10 69 stepside longbed

daves69 · 08-30-2009, 11:54 PM

The door panels are from rod doors. The gas filler door is from an 80's blazer. It works well since that's the same tank that I have.

Nice truck!
I like that grill to

Aarons72 · 08-31-2009, 01:00 AM

Beautiful truck! Love the inside a lot...how do you like those LED tails? I"ve been pondering finding a set...

profe56 · 08-31-2009, 02:51 AM

Thank you again dave and apologize for the next question.
What. Rod doors

daves69 · 08-31-2009, 07:36 AM

Rod doors make ABS plastic panels that you must cover with fabric. The only thing I don't like about the 67-72 doors is that they have an armrest built in. I cut it off and put a piece of flat ABS in place. I used the 72 armrest instead. I covered them in vinyl and made inserts out of doors skin and covered them with tweed to match the seat. I haven't had much luck fastening the doors yet though.

As for the LED tail lights the cheapest place was classic parts: http://www.classicparts.com/Taillamps/products/284/5/0
