Re: need custom parts?

Do you have examples of some of the custom items you have made for our trucks? Good luck on the new venture!

Re: need custom parts?

Nothing yet, but its a good reason to start making parts for my truck,you know for testing and such. I will try to post some pics of other things I have done in the past and maybe try to get some 67-72 parts made soon.

Re: need custom parts?

How about the firewall piece marked with the number 1 on it? I've seen these done in polished stainless.

Re: need custom parts?

I'm looking for emblems for my center caps for my rims. I would have to measure but they should be in the area of 2.5 inches in diameter, made of aluminum with a chevy bowtie engraved in the center. the material needs to be less than 1/4...1/8 would be perfect.

Re: need custom parts?

A good part/piece to make & sell for these trucks should be: Shift boot hold down ring for 4x4 in either aluminum or stainless.

Re: need custom parts?

Along with a boot ring, a cool aluminum shifter knob for either 4sp or 4x4 would be nice. I'd need to come up with a good design though. Maybe something with raised lettering.

Any raised lettering cost way more than engraved and is harder to do because you have to remove all that material.
