Thanks guys! I plan to finish the welding by this weekend so I can refit the bed on the truck. Then I can drill the holes to mount the bed wood and fit the wheel tubs. Then it's off to paint!

Re: Project "Shifted"
It's a kick @ss kit car... If I was able to scrape up the cash I would own it, best build going on the board right now. He's building it with the though of selling it, but unlike the others who build to sell he's building it as if he's going to keep it. Building it right = worth every ¢.

Re: Project "Shifted"
I was just joking.
I know what all is going in to it, I have been following this very close and have been in touch with him on it. This is fastly becoming one of my favorite builds. Hopefully it winds up in my garage.

Re: Project "Shifted"
I knew where you were coming from, it does look like a big snap-tite model kit in the pic. But honestly, you might want to lock down a deal 'cuz someone might scoop you.

Re: Project "Shifted"
Not a lot of visible progress this weekend as I had a lot of other "chores" to do around the house (laying sod/maintaining other vehicles....), but I did get some more welding done on the bed. I plan on putting it back on the truck tonight and will start fitting the bed wood. I also picked up a climate control panel from T Korinek to use with the Vintage air setup.

Re: Project "Shifted"
I have the Vintage Air conversion kit for that panel if you need one. Let me know and I'll dig it out.

Re: Project "Shifted"
I got all of the holes drilled for the SS strips that hold the floor down. Need to start working on the shortening and widening the wheel tubs. Once that's done, I will blow the bed back a part, finish some welding, and then will be ready for paint, I threw the topper on the square body. I think it might look better on there than it did on the 68......

Re: Project "Shifted"
Thanks. I love your suburban! I looked for one for a long time before I ended up going with my 69.
Ok, I'm probably over thinking this, but should I widen my wheel tubs before I shorten them, or shorten them before I widen them???????

Wheel tubs, my approach would be to get them to fit height wise and length wise front to back first, then I would widen them. I think to get there you are cutting them down and removing metal. If I widened them first, I would be cutting out some of what I did for widening to get the length and height right. I think....kinda tired tonight. Apologies if my thinking is wrong. |
