Thanks guys. I got the epoxy in the voids of the trim. It's ugly but it'll work lol.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
I like the epoxy idea. For the record, I used NOS trim and clips on my upper tailgate trim and it still has a small gap on the RH side. Drives me nuts but now you gave me a solution if it comes down to it.
Oh yeah, thanks for the Hendrix link :) listening now. That's really cool that the gmc used your truck on their page .:metal: |
Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
Just listen to the link also but we need a pic of you dressed the part for the video with the truck :bling:

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
I grew up with Hendrix on the turn table among others. :)
Hate to say it but i am still trying to figure out how your gonna attach the trim, double stick tape? |
Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
Just an awesome build!

Thanks guys! I managed to get the new trim on. I tried it with the 3m tape on the epoxy areas and wasn't happy. It seems the trim didn't pull up tight enough next to the handle for me. So I took a pair of trim clips that came with the new trim (the nut and bolt ones ) and added them next to the trim near the handle. I had to take the handle off to get to the nuts for tightening but it looks so much better.
SOOO in the future I will not drill all the holes for the push in clips. Just two for the handle trim and two for each of the ones beside it. I will do the epoxy trick in the middle of those too. |

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
Nice work on the trim Chuck. I may end up have to steal that trick on mine. I find myself pushing the trim in on the pass. side every time I notice it. Thanks for sharing.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
Thanks guys. It sure looks good to me. I will do this to all my trucks if they have trim from here on out.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
Wow! I'm blown away. I just spent every chance I had over the past few days to read every post of the 101 page thread. Choncho is absolutely amazing!
I'm picking up a '71 GMC in a few weeks and will refer back to this thread as I start its build. Hope it turns out this nice one day. Congrats on the Best of Show! Really a classy truck. |

Thanks Robbie. I appreciate the compliments. I took Choncho to a local show/fund raiser at a church and he got a top 50 award.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
I plan on it. Might not bring the truck tho. Don't know yet. I've only got like 150 miles on it so if I do I may trailer it. You going?
