This is a great thread.

Not really my style, but badass idea and look

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!
 

how did u use the marker light as a filler door on a singlr wall bed on like a stepside?

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!
 

There is a walk through setup for the stepside side marker fuel filler in the FAQ section of the board. It is actually easier on the stepside than on a fleetside.

i have looked and cant find it

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!
 

100% correct

thank you

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!
 

The first 3 are of my 67 Panel. Split barn doors and lift gate. The last two are of my 70 2WD Blazer. I shaved the gas filler and will be placing it behind the rear side marker. WES

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!
 

Wes you could have that dead Rat you found in the heater box of the 67 panel chromed and mounted on the hood....then you would have a true Rat Rod.:lol:

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!
 

that is an awesome blazer touch does your top still come off?

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!
 

I dont know how trick my stuff is but i enjoy doing this stuff and im sure there will be plenty more.:metal:

1. Autometer gauges
2. Shift light where the choke was
3. 2003 chevy truck seats
4. 355 with throttle body injection
5. 700 r4 tranny
6. Overhead console out of a 97 chevy pickup complete with satelite radio.(not shown)
7. shaved tailgate handle
8.and plenty of other stuff floatin around in my noodle that i still plan on doing

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!
 

AWSOME idea with the shift light, I may have to do that one day..

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!
 

I have the exact same seats and console as you have waiting to be installed in my truck. Was the install easy? Did you reinforce the floor? Hows the leg room, I'm 6' 3" with lomg legs?

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!
 

Ive always been kind of proud of the shift light idea, now I just want to change the choke letters to say DONT CHOKE. ;)

As for the seats they installed pretty easy, I probably should have reinforced them a little more but they are pretty solid right now. Im only 5'10 and have plenty of leg room but it will probably be kind of cramped for a taller person, you might look into a tilt column while your at it.

eightbanger, Chrome rat.. :lol: Now that would have been some modification!! ;) I think that I would have had to comb it's hair first. :lol:

1969stepside, The Blazer never had a top right from the factory. I am having to modify it to accept one now.. WES

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!
 

Thanks for the reply, my truck does have tilt and I am going to do the "push the steering column closer to the dash " thing as well. Just a thought on reinforcing the floor with those seats, in a severe frontal impact the seats will rip out of the floor with you attached to the seat by the seatbelt. I dont want to hijack the thread but I feel from experience (check the attached pics and I walked away from this) that this is an important topic. Seatbelts work as long as everything else works with them.

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!
 

Already gone,

How did that happen? Blind crossing? I don't mean any disrespect. How do you get hit by a train? Stopped by traffic and couldn't move out of the way? Just wondering not trying to hijack the thread...

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!
 

It was my own stupidity. I was eastbound and wanting to go southbound on across street. The barricade was down at the right hand cut through and went 50more feet and made a 90degree right hand turn onto the cross street that had no barricade figuring I could besat the train, and I didn't.. I was stupid and am very lucky to be alive.

I had looked for a good Burb for over a year and found that one a month earlier with only 89,00 miles on it. It also had a trailer tow package and 3:42's with posi. I lost my Burb but because it was a Burb is probably why I'm still standing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!
 

I can't imagine how f*****g terifiing that Loco would have looked as it shoved it's way through the passenger side...glad you walked away from it.
Stay lucky!

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!
 

Well its like this.. When I knew I was gonna get hit I had enough time to say to myself out loud, and I quote " Aw f**k I'm gonna die".. I was pushed about an eighth mile and yes it was loud and scary. If you notice I have a bruise on my left arm, its from me hanging on and twisting the steering wheel and I was being pushed down the tracks.

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!
 

I do apologize to you for kinda hijacking your thread..

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!

No Pic (sorry), but my most significant mod is putting in a cargo bed light, and wiring it to the brake circuit to be my third brake light. I use a red light bulb and it works real well. Cnut

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!
 

I have one on my white stepper made by Perma-Cap. The cap has a round flap door in the center for the gas nozzle to go thru. I have had it on for five years and never any trouble at all. This may be worth looking into for yours.

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!
 

Custom wood bed with storage for battery, chairs, and toolbox. My friends don't like it because i won't hall there stuff to the shows.
