Re: 67 GMC super custom build

The '67 only combo of a solid red interior on a black truck is absolutely my favorite color of all time on these trucks. I love the direction you are going with this truck!

Re: 67 GMC super custom build

I decided to texture my gm delete plate as well. not sure how it was factory as mine was all wore off. Dupli-color bed liner in a spray bomb is pretty much a perfect match to the original gm bezel if anyone wants to do this to their glove box and delete plate.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build

I bent and cut the original rod and made it fit. I am not sure if I did turn them around. I thought it was relatively easy. Maby buick parts are slightly different?

Re: 67 GMC super custom build

One thing I did last week was change the shift/tilt knobs to 67 car style knobs. This way they all match my original style cruise control lever. I hated it looking mismatched to the rest plus it looks more detailed than the original round shift knob.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build

I am watching this one! I have a 70 GMC short fleet that I plan on having painted back to the original black. Just curious how it really looks. Everything you have done here is top notch keep it up man.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build

I started the rebuild on my starter. I had the housing powder coated but I found a hairline crack on the aluminum nose cone near the solenoid mount so I decided I am going to get a cast iron nose cone for it. anyone know a good way to keep the cast nose cone from rusting but keeping the natural look? Don't want to paint it as it may not ground well then.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build

I finally found mufflers that fit in my original 72 big block muffler straps and are 2 1/4" in and outs. I got them last week and for insurance I purchased a nos 20dn 62 amp alternator on Ebay as a back up for my original one. mine was originally on a 67 3/4 ton truck but I had it restored and am using it on this truck. I don't know how easy these are to find these days if one went shot.
