Finally managed to locate some new caps off e bay for my wheels 52 bucks and they still dont look all that great... Also started sanding the cab roof seam,this took most of the day and just need to transition the corners to make them smooth..

Roof looking good, keep at it.....Jim

Are you getting rid of all the seems and rough edges? Going completely smooth?

I wish man. I've lost complete motivation. All I've done is pulled it to work in hopes of making it a runner..

I am not going totally smooth im gonna throw the rear trim on around the taillights and gate..

**67cheby** · 07-11-2011, 12:19 PM

tuned in ....lets see more !!

VA72C10 · 07-11-2011, 12:58 PM

Looking good! Hope you stay motivated for a bit so we can follow progress

tantrumpipeline · 07-11-2011, 02:22 PM

looking good, I don't get why people hacked the doors on so many of the trucks so poorly

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 07-11-2011, 09:21 PM

Well sam hopefully it will get running soon...

New pads installed as brakes are my next project.... And some misc body work pics..

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 07-12-2011, 09:31 PM

Shooting for this look on the rear.. I would like to run the Marquez taillights and reverse lights however.. Does anyone have any ideas on filling in the missing spots between the taillight bezels and tailgate trim???My tailgate is welded up and I think the trim maybe an eyesore with the gaps?? Feed back would be great..Btw my tailgate will still have the chevrolet letters across the back..

tantrumpipeline · 07-12-2011, 09:49 PM

will look good, but myself with the Marquez billet tails it would look just as good without any trim and save you having to weld and get re finished

VA72C10 · 07-12-2011, 09:50 PM

so are you running the outer trim and the inner billet bezels? Have you already finished the gate? Is the recessed area filled in? If not, I'd center the lettering within the upper and lower trim.

Slick67 · 07-12-2011, 10:36 PM

That looks very clean and classy. Definetely a "less is more" statement for sure!!!!

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 07-12-2011, 10:53 PM

The letters and indentation will remain..

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 07-13-2011, 12:02 AM

More work today lots of body work on small dings no pics of those.. I did manage to finish the roof seam and picked up some shopline epoxy and another gallon of frenchblue

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 07-13-2011, 12:06 AM

Few more.....Hope to have the truck all in sealer by the weekend of the 22nd lots of body work to do between now and then..

Hooney72 · 07-13-2011, 12:14 AM

Nice work Did you use two bottom trim pieces on the tailgat that looks so clean

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 07-13-2011, 12:15 AM

That is the plan how ever that nice tailgate with the trim I posted is not mine its apic I stole from this board..I already have 2 new lower trim pieces just need the taillight pieces..

Hooney72 · 07-13-2011, 12:19 AM

Oh I see that sure looks good I might have to do that on mine

Hooney72 · 07-13-2011, 12:23 AM

Oh you welded your tailgate closed to bad you couldnt make a seamless trim that would be cool

**67cheby** · 07-13-2011, 10:01 AM

Looking good great progress

Slick67 · 07-13-2011, 12:55 PM

What exactly is that drawn around the word "bulge"?????

**67cheby** · 07-13-2011, 12:57 PM

if i was guessing......it looks like one of my favorite aftermarket "augmented" parts !!

tantrumpipeline · 07-13-2011, 02:40 PM

hahaha I somehow overlooked that drawing

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 07-13-2011, 06:33 PM

I thought those and trucks went together?????HAHAHHAHHAHAHAHA
