Re: 72 Dropmember Suburban
I ordered some of the U-POL Raptor bed liner. I ordered the clear so I can mix the paint in with it so it will be the same color blue as the truck. Im going to try it out on the floor where the carpet goes. If I dont like it, it wont matter because it will be under carpet. If I do like the way it looks , I think I am going to do the cargo area with it.

Re: 72 Dropmember Suburban
Got the other tub in. Stopped by the paint supply place and got the color for the bed liner, and the bed liner material should be here this week.

Re: 72 Dropmember Suburban
The floor and cargo area are now done in raptor bedliner. I really like how it turned out, even though most of it will be covered with carpet.

Re: 72 Dropmember Suburban
that looks great! i like the way the texture isnt to rough. mixing the color in was a great idea. Where did you get the liner matl from? cost? i found it, not a bad price either.

Thanks!

Thanks! That is the place I got it from. They have an eBay store and it was a little cheaper. It takes 10% urathane paint mixed in with it. |

Re: 72 Dropmember Suburban
Did the bedliner stuff spray out of a normal gun or did you use a special gun or did you roll it on?

Re: 72 Dropmember Suburban
I had to work this past week so I didnt get much done.
I got the 454 the other day because it was a standard bore block. I got the short block torn down yesterday and to my suprise the crank had standard rod and mains in it. Almost a shame to not use it. Im hoping to get the block over to the machine shop and get the redy for the new rotating assembly soon. Today I got the hood hinges fitted to the fire wall. I will get the brackets welded up to the hood tomorrow. |

Re: 72 Dropmember Suburban
I got everything in the interior that isnt being painted out and finally got all the old weather stripping and rubbers removed. Not too much more prep work and the rest of the interior will be ready to paint. I plan on getting all the door jams painted at the same time.
I forgot to post this picture of the hood hinges installed: |

Re: 72 Dropmember Suburban
Looking good, mine is the same color,I like the coating you used on the floor. I think I'll check that out when I get to that stage. Getting ready to send mine in for metal work.
