Sorry to hear about the engine. But the replacement sounds even better.

How are you planning to shave the firewall? Symettrical? Shave the rain gutter? Cap it 90 or at 45 degrees?

And keep us up to speed if something happens with the burb (to be tahoe)

I have a couple of multi part questions,
1. Does your custom billet side markers utilize a factory reflector/light housing? is it made for L.E.D.? I'm interested in making some similar.

2. Where did you get your upper mouldings? How was the fitment/quality? Did you buy your lower mouldings from them too? Woodgrain or black?

I bought the moldings from chevyland in rancho cordova ca. Fit was perfect I also bought the lower moldings from the same place and they are black. The markers are made for LEDs and do not use stock lenses. The are two piece billet out side with the lens glued to the billet. Hope this helps

Thanks, I sure would like to see some pictures of both sides if you have those markers off again. Don't go to any trouble though. How much was your moulding package if you don't mind, did you use oem style hangers/clips? I have heard some stories about really crappy aftermarket trim. thanks

**superflysteiny** · 02-14-2011, 07:43 PM

I will send you pica when I get back into town as the markers are off right now. The molding kit uses all stock clips and was 875 for the upper and lower with the tail gate. Hope this helps.

If I were not waiting for axles and the motor I could have the truck back together in two weeks. The issue is I am fixing all the screw ups the other guy made which happens and also I will have a few weeks in the engine compartment with the inner fenders. I plan to take it to cool April night in redding this yr. Should be fun. That is if it's not raining.

I like the satin finish for the frame, rather than gloss. You should be driving it in a couple weeks right?

**67cheby** · 02-19-2011, 10:26 AM

NICE....cant wait for mondays pics

1stchevy · 02-19-2011, 11:24 AM

Frame looks nice!

jwalk · 02-19-2011, 12:02 PM

Frame looks GOOD! It looks like you coated it with the rear notch, front member, and trailing arm crossmember installed. That's how I want to do mine. I've just noticed that a lot of people get everything coated apart. Did everything get covered nice around all that stuff?
