I still have the piece I cut out of the stainless bumper--it is 21 7/8. The hitch surround and the license surround covers the welding and the brackets. My license plate is on a receiver.

Is the center section welded or bolted to the bumper ends? It looks like it might be bolted. If you have any pictures of the back of the bumper or the process that would be helpful. Since you used an Envoy frame I assume that you did not use the factory bumper brackets? Thanks Marc

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
Hey BBEEP, I know your bodyman very well; he's painted many cars for me. He's also the guy who built the amazing Chevy truck with FRONT AND REAR Olds Toronado engines/transaxles! Les is now about 80 years old with a full head of hair and still going strong. Evidently the secret to longevity is a lifetime of inhaling paint fumes and bondo dust ;-)

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
Looks great. I found this build thread last month and was wondering how it all turned out.

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
What wheels did you use? Spare tire wheels? Perfect choice!!! Should have done that on mine.

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
I just read through the whole build , Great project nice meld .
Great look ! About the time you were having wheel fit problems , reading this morning , I was chomping at the bit to chime in about using spare wheels . I see you found that out for yourself . Question : How are the hub caps retained ? My thought : By the shoulder on the chrome lug nuts ? Your answer : What's your next project ?
