Re: 63 C10 SWB Dropmember Build
Thanks!

Been trying to keep updated more on pics. I put more insulation down, since I never really did it when I first did the interior. Should help with interior and sound. Before, I just had heat shield and carpet padding. Also, am installing a stereo using Fred's Truck Parts dash panel for 4" speakers. Then adding 6x9's in the back and eventually (2) 10" subs. For now, just getting the 4 speakers in for the cruise to Del Mar this weekend for the Goodguys show.

Went to the GoodGuys Del Mar show this weekend, and had an awesome time with everyone! Before heading back, I was able to work a little bit on the sub box at my buddy's place. Ill post more of the sub box later.

Did i miss the a/c install? I saw the compressor mounting. I would like to see more pics of the hvac system and how the install was.

I don't have any more pictures than what is here for the AC install. Sometimes when I get working, I forget to take pictures.

I used the Vintage Air kit we sell, which was the Sure Fit kit. Installation went well. The only thing I would probably change, is go with the Dirty Dingo compressor bracket on the LS. My Kwik Performance that came with the Vintage Air kit caused some belt squeaking.

I know... right! I need to find one with a patina already. Or I can have one painted, scratch it up and let it rust some.

Re: 63 C10 SWB Dropmember Build
Couple of questions, Ididit auto/tilt universal column length? Bed wood, where from? What generation is the Vintage Air box under the dash?

Truck is in mock up stage right now, then paint, need to get some stuff and have a few questions answered, thanks!

Re: 63 C10 SWB Dropmember Build
It is an Ididit 33" universal column. The bed wood I got from Classic Parts and just stained it black. The Vintage Air is a GenIV from their Sure Fit kit.

Ask away, and we sell all these parts, so just let us know when you're ready.

Anytime my friend. That speaker plate is a nice piece and the 4" speakers really put out some sound. It is a good solution to front speakers, especially for those that don't want to have speakers shown.

Definitely interested. Can you email me some pictures and price?
It would be cool to put the correct grille in the truck.

Travis,
I bought this for my truck based on your information here. I'm on the road right now but should be there when I get home later tonight.
Thanks

Thank, I appreciate the order. Yours is boxed and ready to ship, As soon as the speakers show up it will be out the door. what year truck is it going in?

If anyone has any speaker recommendations other than kenwood, im all ears, they are very slow to deliver and its killing me.
