Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Nice job shoehorning that in
![]() It doesn't stick down that much lower than a stock A/C box actually...probably 3-4" or so more.... ...are you going to be able to integrate the controls somehow?

Got the water divert-er glued in and celebrated my 18th anniversary.

I am running the full black leather setup from the 2002 donor truck - buckets with a flip up middle seat. It's the real deal. I'll need to massage it a little more, but it is in there with no dash mods. I trimmed a little off of the new ac unit, and I still have a lot to do on the fire wall. I have more work on the other side of the firewall with the wiring harness rubber grommet, and finish up the cowl rain divert-er area. After that I might be ready to edge in the fire wall and interior. The interior valance will be covered in upholstery, so no need to make or paint that now.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Its magic I tell ya.
Yes it hangs down about 2.75 inches, but I have been planning a dash lower valance panel to house my modern key switch, heated seat controls, cruise control, and a few other things. I will just run it all the way across to the passenger side and that way I can put the Pass. heat switch over there for the pass. I have been planning some sort of video screen, so now that the the ac unit is blocking some of the depth for a radio and ashtray, I am thinking of mounting a flatscreen there. Gotta be able to watch movies on the road trips !

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Nice work on the a/c heater unit. I really like the idea of using modern system. I also like that you can save some big bucks on your build. I must be nice to have access to all those late model rigs......keep the pics coming.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
We'll let you slide on the limited progress just this once since you did build a bed and remove an engine also....
....but only this once.... ![]()

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Lots of thinking tonight, not much doing. I did move the e-brake over 1.5 inches to make room for my giant wire hole.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Nice job on the AC. I think it hangs down less than my factory AC in my 68, and is cleaner looking without all the hoses and diverters. Paint it flat black and it should disappear. Looking good. Jim

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
I'm offline for a weekend and 2.5 more pages show up on this build! That's cool! It's one of the ones to watch for sure!

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Tonight I piddled around with the 6.0 Denali exhaust. All of the down pipes are a quarter inch bigger and the manifolds are a newer design (2005) and look a little better. Honestly they look like shorty headers. Nice !
