Thanks Nuke1. I didnt even get to the engine yet. I will post pics of that project when I start on it. I did get my interior trim and door panels painted. I also installed my headliner. I put the factory air dam on. I need some opinions on that. Should I keep it on or take it back off. Thanks guys.

JohnC · 03-08-2009, 08:12 PM

Truck is looking awesome. I would keep the airdam on. To me it really makes the front look a little lower, and finishes it off. When I took the one off my old 84 it looked weird to me.

menace121978 · 03-08-2009, 08:33 PM

i like the air dam... but, would it be possible to cut the middle of it straight so it looks more square and flat? maybe its just the pic/shadow...

btw trim and panels looking good... little by little

hey 84 your killing me over here my truck not even started yet looking good though.... trying to get my truck started almost there just having problem with getting spark plug wires to fit right there either to short or to long it looking good

1984 swb chevy · 06-21-2009, 09:13 PM

Here are some new pictures. That six month wait for windows took the wind out of my sail so I haven't been working on my truck. Now that I got the windows and got them in I have been working day and night to get the truck together. Let me know what you think. Thanks.

menace121978 · 06-21-2009, 09:19 PM

wow that is beautiful buddy. damn i love those coys!

sure looks alot cleaner w/ the 1 piece.

cadpwrd · 06-21-2009, 09:21 PM

Very nice. That's pretty much the same color scheme I plan on having for my truck if I ever paint it. Except mine will have a red interior and stripe. Your truck looks perfect.

northern 85 · 06-21-2009, 09:24 PM

Nice nice nice! Love that seat it belongs in that truck,your hard work is paying off!

sqrbdy · 06-21-2009, 09:31 PM

JohnC · 06-22-2009, 04:17 PM

Looks awesome man! Those one piece windows are sweet looking. How were they to install? Can we get some closer pics of them, especially where the vent window was.

The kit wasn't to bad to install. The hardest thing was grinding the hinge nuts inside the door. I will try to get some close ups tomorrow. Overall I am happy with the kit. The inner window scraper trim sucks. The factory door panel bends up at the edges but the trim they give you is nut bent to fit. I did the best I could to make it look correct.

Thank you to everyone for the positive responses about my truck.
