Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
This is where the body sits compared to the stock 17 inch Envoy wheel with a mud & snow tire. Planning to use 20's. When the fender was permanently mounted, it was moved out about 1/2 inch. Should be interesting to see how big a tire/wheel combo I can get under it!

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
Cool! Re-doing the shape of the roof in metal, a ragtop, or a solid plexi roof?

Lets see, Volkswagen cloth rollback, new Caddy Wagon double sunroofs, . . . nope. Sectioning 2-3 inches out. Should give it a chopped look without the actual chopping. Plus, while it is off, I am making a fiberglass mould of it so I have a smooth, paintable headliner. |

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
BBEEP, Can not wait to see the difference. I thought about putting a sliding rag in my panel truck till I was reading about them leaking. Great build!

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
1st tail light roughed in. I like the way it follows the contour of the door.

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
It looks good. Is that the factory envoy lense? I also like the molded in rear bumper

When the body was dipped, there was too much sediment in the dip tank to clean the top. (& yes, will fix the hole in the roof before I do the glass) |

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
Slick idea for the headliner. I bought a fiberglass one off of EBay but I'm not sure how great it fits. I started fiberglassing some kick panels and it is in the 30's today in MI so it is taking a little time for the resin to set up..
Marc

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
Since I plan to glass the dash, I figure I will only upholster from the windows down. Everything else inside will be painted body color, dash, headliner, window surrounds, pillars, etc.
And originally Marc, I was going to paint it black over the new Camaro Synergy Green Metallic--so love your truck!! |

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
Did you have it dipped in the Portland area or? I'm pretty sure that somewhere in the build the cab I am putting together will be better off with a trip to the dip tank.
The hole in the roof from the light that was on the truck in it's early life? |
