Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
It's really silly of me to even be thinking of this, but I'm envisioning a travel burb with an Airstream in tow. You know I'm in love with 72's, and so I'm preparing for a 4th door shortcut using parts of the jamb and door innards of the sq body with the skin and window frame of the 72 grafted on. Seems much easier than what all these guys are doing currently, hand fabricating everything from scratch.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
This has nothing to do with Young Frankenstein, but I thought I would give an update here about his Bride.... our 1957 Buick Roadmaster.
I've been integrating some safety items like seat belt mount floor reinforcement, side impact crash bars from a 2000 Camaro and updated locks and latches that will stay secured during a wreck. Come over and check out the progress. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...653170&page=25

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
THIS is what I wanted my bedliner to turn out like.... I've finally had enough practice and this is what I just sprayed on the bottom of our 57 Buick Roadmaster over in the Alternate Tinkerings section. Too bad I didn't know all the secrets 4 years ago when I did Frankie.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Just found this a couple of days ago and it has inspired me and given me some ideas for projects. Awesome job.
A couple of ideas for you. I'm only about halfway through, so these items might have been covered. For the headliner, have you considered trying to mold something out of Kydex? I don't know if you could get a big enough sheet for the headliner, but I think if you used a heat gun you could form it into whaterver you wanted. Probably would have been easier with the cab off, you could turn it upside down to work with it. Second on the brake booster. I saw you had clearance issues with your shift linkage, is there a reason you didn't go with hydroboost? |
