Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build

Yes, OrrieG, the bottom half. The top half will be black. Considered all black, but nah. The interior will be a combo as well.
I look forward to seeing you!

Looking great! x2 on the 3rd door and the roof. Very slick, and hardly noticable!

Yes, they are! Great catch. The used the 'inner tail lights', they are a little more uniformly shaped than the outer ones.

HOWEVER, I am probably going to change them. I like my original idea for lights better and am going back to that.

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build

I'm baa-aack! Been busy with work and I put this build on hold to work on my 52 Bus.
I also just flew to North Carolina where I bought a 61 Parkwood and drove it home!

Just installed springs, struts, control arms, shocks, and adjustable panhard bar to drop the truck 2 and 3 inches. It is nice to be able to buy parts off the shelf for the Envoy . . .

Thanks! I bought it just to make the trip, an experience with my father-in-law. It is going on ebay next week.

"Remodeling" the fender openings. We all know that the back fender never is quite lined up correctly with the wheel. I want these to be. Of course, have to match the front as well . . .

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build

BBEEP... The build is VERY IMPRESSIVE! Just to give you a heads up, most of the forum members @Trailvoy.com left and started GMTnation.com You should def stop by and re-introduce yourself, we all loved your build. Again, good job and good luck on the rest of it.

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build

Thanks! Just added a 1950 passenger car front license surround to the rear 'shortened' bumper.
Also changed my mind on the tail lights. No 2012 Camaro, now HHR.

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build

I like the look of the new bumper. Also nice choice on the tail lights, they are more suited for the burb.
