Since you already have the upper trim, I think it would look good with upper and lower trim (woodgrain). Whether you leave it blue or paint it brown.
I think GM got it right with upper and lower trim on these trucks.

boostedc10 · 06-17-2016, 07:48 AM

Ya I am another for putting the lower trim on it. It just finishes the look for this year truck in my opinion.

This. (says the guy who still has old school aftermnarket trim on his '69. Don't worry it's getting replaced.)

Do you have a good source for aftermarket trim? I need to order new seat upholstery, steering wheel, and carpet. I'll be contacting Sarah when the time is right.

I need to see if he can add the trim to the rendering and change the roof to cream. I think that'd look great

Have always thought they looked classy and different at the same time.

While the rendering looks great, I agree with others about the lower trim.

I think it's unanimous! Lower trim it is

I agree. GM knew what they were doing when they designed these trucks.

Can't rush perfection! You'll get it done eventually

slo72c10 · 06-18-2016, 01:37 PM

Thanks for the nice words bro! Your build has really inspired me to build again. Been along time sense i wanted to do anything car and truck related

chevycc1970 · 06-18-2016, 02:45 PM

That is one killer build you have going on there! That thing is sweet!!

knomadd · 06-18-2016, 03:12 PM

I hear Mar-K has some of the nicest trim out there. No experience with them myself, but heard plenty of good things. The lower trim would look good. I have just lower on mine and I like the look.

**nlped** · 06-18-2016, 03:23 PM

Very Cool build! I'm in...

Bennett68C10 · 06-18-2016, 08:30 PM

I definitely agree with everybody else, regardless of the color I would add the lower trim!

69short · 07-30-2016, 05:00 PM

A few pics of the progress

ajgriffin · 07-30-2016, 05:19 PM

Man that thing is sweet! What's the badge on the cowl? Can we get a close up of it?

Thank you. Here's a pic of the badge. Looks like a dealer tag from when it was sold.

Question... when ordering the boyd efi tank, how many ohms should I get for the sending unit? I plan to run a dakota digital dash

**screaminchevypickup** · 07-31-2016, 03:44 PM

90 ohm is kinda standard but with Dakota gauges it's programable to whatever sending unit you have..

Thank you! I just got my PB hood hinges. I'm hoping to get them installed this weekend.

Figured I'd check in. Not much going on here on my end. Been really busy with work and my oldest had her tonsils and adenoids taken out. We'll be spending the weekend in Branson so garage time will be minimal.

69short · 10-08-2016, 03:38 PM

Found a set of hills rod and customs super slam inner fenders on craigslist for $450 so I'm pretty stoked about that. I'm going to work on hooking up my ride height sensors today.

gringoloco · 10-08-2016, 05:07 PM

Smoking deal!

Woodnears · 10-08-2016, 05:08 PM

That's a score of a lifetime. Let me know when you wanna sell them.
