Re: New trash truck
Update, put a blazer bumper on it, had to do some cutting on it to make it work and I will do a little body work on it down the road but it came out good. Did some work on the inside as well, its better but needs a little more work. I am just trying to get it looking ok before the show this weekend.

Re: New trash truck
I like the "murdered out" look... I see there is a vette wheel on the side of the building.. is it for the airhose?.. what cutting did you have to do for the blazer bumper?

Re: New trash truck
That vette wheel is for my water hose at the house. It may not look like it but I have a full day on work in that bumper, I had to weld all the holes up then cut the ends of the bumper to make it fit better on the body. And thank man, I think I will bag it this coming fall..

Re: New trash truck
Update.. Put the wheels off the GN on the trash truck.. I took it on a road trip to AR and I only made it to nashville before the trans went BOOM! I now have a 5 speed, just have to put it in..

Re: New trash truck
That last pic is sweet...those wheels really fit perfectly in the wells; the backspacing is dead-on. Did you have to run spacers?
And that blazer bumper is just right...looks so much better than a roll pan, IMHO.

No spacers, they are made to fit a Buick GN and the BS is just about the same. I did a lot of work to that back bumper, to make it look like that I had cut the ends and move them in, and welded all the bolt holes up. Thanks again..
