What about a cowl induction hood that was modeled after a 70 to 72 Chevelle cowl induction hood, that works just like the original, but on our trucks. I always thought that would look better than the cowl induction hoods out their right now.

Those would be great - could even be in sheet form. Then sell a 6" or 12" long 'end section' with the proper sloped ends. Buy it it sheets and 'caps' and cut to fit the holes.

I'd like to see the back piece as well, although it does have some pretty complicated curves. Even in non rust belt area's I've seen this area rust out because water gets between the outer skin and that inner "L" channel piece.

Re: What parts aren't out there?
 

I'd just like a ETA on the smooth cowl. We were told there was gonna be one, then it got real quiet.

Any progress?

I so far haven't been able to locate a complete body bolt kit for all the body pieces. I think a lot of the members probably needed to convince more then a few of their bolts to come apart when restoring and a complete kit would be great.

Re: What parts aren't out there?
 

any consideration of the other parts on this list?
Thanx for the firewall sheet metal and whole cab floor.

I want a rear cab seam filler panel. you know where the rear cab seam is, just a flat panel to weld in there to get rid of that seam.
its good to see vendors asking what we want.

Re: What parts aren't out there?
 

I haven't looked yet to see if it's out there, but what about the carpet trim strip on the step-up on a Blazer/Jimmy floor? Maybe a lower B pilar patch for the same?

Bet you didn't think you were going to get this many requests... :lol:

Here's mine. It's a simple and easy one to manufacture. Don't know if it has been mentioned already.

Still waiting on that shaved cowl :)

I and I bet alot more of us 67-72 4wd owners would pay for a reproduction of stock tow hooks for 67-72s

Re: What parts aren't out there?
 

A lot of us are, Tri-Pro, is there any ETA on when these are going to become available?

Re: What parts aren't out there?
 

Here are 2 pieces that need to be made to save a lot ocabs from the crushers. Outter front cab roof to match the inner repop that you have for the inner roof. The second piece would bee the front windshield frame upper a pilar. These 2 pieces rust out the on cabs and make a cab all most unrebuild able.

I've asked the same exact question at least 5 times in the past 6 months (1 of them being only a few days ago) and have NEVER gotten an answer.

I think we have officially had our "chains yanked" :lol:

frame parts such as , trackbar to frame bracket. In this part of the country they are hard to come by.

Re: What parts aren't out there?
 

you would think that it would be possible to incase them in some sort of molded shipping foam or something. i work in a datacenter, and when we have to ship a server and dont have a proper shipping container for it, we just put the server in a crate, and heat up these expanding foam thingys. put a bunch of them in there, and they fill up all the airspace, while also molding into a very strong protective shell.

even if such a service cost an extra $50-75 (hell im just reaching there) to ship, id glady pay the premium to have nice panels shipped in a safe manner. hell even if you just made em available and they still couldnt be freighted safely... id bet people would show up to pick them up themselves.

1967-68 1/2 ton dog dish hubcaps. I would love to get my hands on a set painted or polished.

Re: What parts aren't out there?
 

what is the status on those shaved cowls? :D

Re: What parts aren't out there?
 

i agree

Re: What parts aren't out there?
 

For those of you that feel your "Chains" are being yanked. I don't always see these posts....there's enough posting in this section that if I don't see it within hours of it being posted it's already a couple pages back. A lot of members use PM's to ask questions; it's fairly effective. I know I posted some time ago that, while working on the cowl, we were made aware of another manufacturer tooling it (it's listed in Brother's '07 catalog). We stopped working on it because there's simply not enough market for the part to have two competing tools.

I don't post updates on parts when there's nothing to report

Re: What parts aren't out there?
 

the bedsides aren't that far off. I don't know what the specific issue is that has delayed them but we frequently ask for the status of parts under development and these are just "Delayed". I don't think the foam is a bad idea....but, packed, an 8' bedside can't fit in a truck standing and lengthwise it's over 2 standard pallets long and it's difficult for a regular forklift to deal with a pallet that long. I'm sure that as soon as they arrive we'll be trying to figure out the shipping dillema.

You interested in doing 73-87 stuff? It would be awesome if someone would reproduce the 73-79 headlamp bezels in something other than plastic...:)
