Re: Project: 1972 K30 Crew Cab Duramax
I am subbed. I have read all your build.
You are doing an Awesome job, Looks good. I hope to get started building a Crew-Cab from my 67 1-ton (157' wheel-base) sometime this year. I have do something with that extra room. I like the way you are working the roof in. I also like all the pictures you have taken. Your B-pillars look good. Will you put a headliner in or will it be a steel roof? Dwayne |

Re: Project: 1972 K30 Crew Cab Duramax
Nice work Trevor. I wonder if a guy with a custom step die on a bead roller could make a panel for the inner head liner so all the cab rooves wouldn't have to be put together?

Re: Project: 1972 K30 Crew Cab Duramax
Problem is that it needs to have just a slight crown in it like the truck headliners. I need it to have just a slight crown as well for strength. I am sure it is possible several ways, I am not out much but Time and a couple old roofs.

Re: Project: 1972 K30 Crew Cab Duramax
Removed my international gas door. I think I like the blazer neck better for the look.

Re: Project: 1972 K30 Crew Cab Duramax
I'm leaning on doing the same thing at the back of my Longhorn bed too. If I put a fuel fill door in front of the marker lamp, it would be too far forward due to an emblem. So I'm considering doing the same and trying to get rid of the fuel fill door up front.
Your neck hole looks nice.

It's great to see you working on the crew again Trevor, that inner roof looks like it's a bear.

Re: Project: 1972 K30 Crew Cab Duramax
Pretty happy with the driver's side exterior. Not much left to do on it.

Re: Project: 1972 K30 Crew Cab Duramax
Thanks for the kind words guys. Feels good to finally be checking things off instead of redoing previous work.

Re: Project: 1972 K30 Crew Cab Duramax
Also picked up a missing link. I didn't like having to remove and alter my bed supports. It also left no room for my gas tank fill tube besides through the frame. I was lucky to find a clean Longhorn frame to section into mine.

Re: Project: 1972 K30 Crew Cab Duramax
so is the plan to splice the 157" and 133" wb frames together? Ive wondered if a 133" rail would slide inside a 157" rail at some point? Looking great as always!

Re: Project: 1972 K30 Crew Cab Duramax
I suppose you could. There is a spot on the longhorn frame the lines up with the 157" frame height. That's where I will splice.
