Doing a search for gas filler options and came across this thread. I'd love to see more info/tech how to on this specific one. This is clean and exactly what I'd like to do with mine. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, chad |
Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!
This is pretty much all I've added so far. Map light out of a '88 F-150.

Another member now owns this truck, but I rounded the bed corners (proof of concept run for my 61), made the door panels from deluxe/standard panels combined (I thought they looked pretty cool), and put F150 side mirrors on it:

Then on the Suburban... Is a 476 a custom touch? :lol: Door panels (still not fully complete), new inserts in the seats (as seen via camera phone pic), Keeping the dealer installed roof rack (it's sorta custom, right?), and I just finished making these covered fiberglass kick panels. I'll post the installed pics later.

Kick panels before covering, and the rack...

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!
Frizzle Fry- how will you mount the door panel inserts?. Are you going to install the pull knobs for the air vents so they are still functional?. Cool Burb!

Yes, drilling holes for the vent pull bracket is the next step on the kick panels. |

One of my mods is a wood bed I made myself. The wood is poplar. I cut the boards to size (specs from GMC Pauls website), ran them thru a planer, cut the grooves for the strips with a table saw, put three coats of spar polyurethane on both sides, bought the unfinished strips form Mar K and painted them with 2 coats of Blue and one coat clear. I attached them over a one piece welded in steel bed. I first coated the bed with POR15 and then mounted the boards over closed cell pipe insulation (boards are on top of foam insulation so they have air under them). I drilled holes through the steel bed and used stainless steel bolts and self tighening nuts to secure it to the steel plate. It was alot of work but I'm happy with the results.

Made an acrylic hood emblem insert out of florescent blue acrylic. Thinking about adding a LED to side light it when the head lights are on...
Some mildly custom door panels. Also fitted 14in electric fans, One puller on the radiator, one puser on the condensor. Did quite get the AC cold enuf so now sitting on the shelf, waiting for me to put them on are a 508 compressor and Be-Cool condensor. Made a smoked Acrylic shroud to force all the air to flow through the condensor as well. The front fan eliminated the room I had for my old hood pop, so I made up a new lever drilled a hole, and looked some cable through it. Ran this around one bar of the grill... It is all but invisible, and works great! Also fitted late model C1500 seats.. Right now we are calling this truck FHFU... Fix his F*** ups (the previous owner was a hack) notice the cut doors and dash, the fact the when you turn on the fan, the compressor kicks on, etc etc.. LOTS of work to do... or re-do.. |
