Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Great to see it drivable Drew. Keep up the great work.
I have seen a few trucks & hot rods with the tail pipe routed under the rear axle tubes rather than over like typical. Is that possible with your ride height and suspension travel? It will definitely quiet things down if you can make a tailpipe out the back fit.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
I'll have to see how under the axle might work
On another note, I drove it around a good bit running some errands and man is it nice! So smooth to drive, firm and tight steering, ABS brakes (I tried it), good- smooth acceleration. I can definitely say it will be a pleasure to drive, and I don't even have all the bugs worked out or rear side glass or even an interior. I really am stoked to have it completed.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Awesome! Glad to hear you are enjoying it. I imagine it will be just slightly quieter when you get things like glass in it

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Awesome build. Turned out really nice!
Have you seen the new 2013 Silverado? It might take a while for this one to grow on me. |

So far, photos like this have been the most the public has seen of the 2014 Silverado. I don't comment often, but I check this thread almost daily. I absolutely love your truck.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Well done, can't find words to describe your truck. Awesome job though. Seen the thread before, first time I read through it was today .

An old truck body with modern goodies is a truck that will be loved, and used (often) I sometimes feel guilty that I am not running old school gear, but everytime i jump in it, she fires like a brand new one and I remember why it's like that. After the truck is complete, the next step for Drew's truck needs to be a camper. Because NOTHING is cooler than an old truck yankin' a trailer. (especially to your fellow campground residents) My old Burb is well known at our favorite campgrounds.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
Saturday night picture time.
Oh my, its really starting to look like something! Everything fits under the hood (now). I had to clearance a small piece of the hood brace for the brake booster. I'll touch it up later with some blue.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
We looked at Airstreams... they are cool and I wanted one, but new ones are OUTRAGEOUS! AND the old ones dont have much room. With 3 kids, I HAD to have that big superslide. So, as is the theme with the Burb, I went with modern and practical instead of nostalgic and "less practical" haha.
Get 'er done by this summer and go campin' with us!
