Re: Project: 1972 K30 Crew Cab Duramax
I haven't decided just yet. I have been looking into getting a custom dash made from New Vintage USA. I like their 69 series. I have seen Dakota Digitals and others used. You could possibly even use the stock gauges and convert the factory speedometer to electric. Trevor

New Vintage does really nice work, they made this custom set for my 50 GMC. Highly recommended.

Re: Project: 1972 K30 Crew Cab Duramax
31 gal blazer tank. I believe there is a 40-45 gal. Suburban tank as well, but won't fit a swb frame. Would have to be a long bed.

Re: Project: 1972 K30 Crew Cab Duramax
Wedding is coming up. Lots of last minute things to do to prepare for it. Getting anything I can done on the truck. Tonight it was pulling out my tailgate and getting my clearance lamps drilled out. I am using the 73-80 style lamps as the lens said 70....usually lamps have which year they were started. It was all about the details.

Re: Project: 1972 K30 Crew Cab Duramax
Had to clean out the garage to organize and to get prepared to work on this thing. So I pulled it out to clean off it off and snapped a few pics while at it. She hasn't seen much daylight since starting the build. I also removed the roof again to complete the welding on my inner, but did see that the outer roof will lay how I want it.
