Got my OG paint polished the rest of the way out yesterday and got the old original 307 fired off after setting in a barn for 20 plus years!

Looks great. Just need some tires that fill the wheel wells.

Got the interior and patch panel paint finished. now its reassembly time with all new interior. I also ordered a "original looking" bluetooth radio from custom autosounds and the new push on door seals from GMC pauls.

Is that a factory color?

boonedogs72 · 01-04-2020, 12:35 PM

Thanks guys, have a set of 33’s with cucv Steelies waiting Togo under it. Got it fired off and drove it for the first time New Year’s Day! Have a short video on my Instagram Boonedogs32.

Preparing the rear passenger area for carpet.

Dynamat down, what about the wheel wells and the inside of the bed walls?

Also, you can go to my build thread to look at additional pictures.

Thanks,

Pat

Now the bed sides lined also. Then added 1.5" solid foam insulation over that.

Hopefully, this will make it sound a bit better in the cab.

On my resto-mod K5, I built the front half of a rear body harness. I used GLX wire and Deutsch connectors. I also added a couple wires to have my LED rear side marker lights act as rear turn signal lights as well. All covered in F6 split braided loom that was run along the body rather than inside the frame.

I still need to build the rest of the harness on the truck to connect to the actual lights and tie into a trailer wiring lead....

Still have to get my other two wheels powder coated and mounted but couldn’t wait so....

mcmlxix · 01-09-2020, 05:57 AM

Installed the custom rear body harness.
Terminated at a junction box so I can tie into the rear trailer harness (blue wire.)
I also have LED lights on all corners and will have my rear side markers flash with the turn signals.
I also ran the harness along the body from the firewall, along the rocker box, then up through the driver side wheel well. I still need to add some clips to secure the harness along the rocker box. It's wrapped in TechFLex F6 split loom.

The only thing running inside the frame will be fuel and brake hard lines...

mcmlxix · 01-10-2020, 07:02 AM

I had my door panels sitting on a shelf for years...
I decided to take them down, wash them and hang them on the doors with a couple bolts. They were covered in Line-X and I had the trim powder coated in red. Still need some arm rests... trying to decide on Black or try Red....
I still need to install my NuRelic power window regulators as well...
Then figure out what to do with the hole where the window crank used to be... Maybe a cup holder...

I got the rear seat out of the donor 2001 Tahoe mocked up and made sure the passenger side would fold down correctly. Turned out pretty nice and will be a lot easier for the kids to get in and out.

That's cool.

boonedogs72 · 01-19-2020, 09:16 PM

New NOS caps for the blazer!

mcmlxix · 01-19-2020, 09:36 PM

Designed and installed a bracket for my Dakota Digital gauge module and OBDII interface. Cut out of stainless steel on a waterjet. Bolts to the bake pedal/steering column mount.
