What parts aren't out there? *Updated pics*
 
Trying to find new product ideas. If there are parts that aren't available now that you'd like to see made; or those you'd like to see improved please let me know.

So far I've had a number of requests for the '67-'72 auxillary battery tray and a couple for the '67-'68 grille. Anything else?

Steel bed floor for short fleet box? Bedsides for long box? Good 72 door panels

longbed parts would be really nice cause i dont see any at all, maybe some repo dash boards, ac and non ac

The shortbed floor assembly I've had requests for; I think this would be an excellent item.

The longbed peices I'm aware of (we've got a '70 lwb out in the yard here that could ALSO use a set of bedsides). The biggest issue on these items becomes getting them from point "A" to point "B" intact. There are certainly enough of the trucks out there to justify making the parts.

What is the issue with the current '72 door?

They arent re made( I think) and are different from the 67-71 doors

you always hear people saying they want a tool box door for the side of the bed.

The '72 door is made for the truck and the Blazer (and is different than the 67-71).

We'll have to get working on the floor...I think the truck I bid on on E-Bay needs one also...LOL

Absolutely a must!! I travelled 400 miles one way to get the bed parts I needed. I would have GLADLY paid truck freight to get new parts.

I think all this '72 door talk, was supposed to be '72 door PANELS.

re-reading I think you're right (I knew I shouldn't have done that !%!@& in the 70's)

If you're talking about stamping pieces.I think a shaved cowl would go.Also a inner/outer roof maybe from the beltline up.Maybe a single piece floor replacement.

I have a cowl coming in this week to send out. By "Shaved" do you mean just without antenna hole?

The front inner roof is available now. If you can; PM me a pic of what you're thinking.

How about an upper liftgate for the suburbans?

72CSTC5 02-26-2007 10:17 PM

Re: What parts aren't out there?
 
Yeah I forgot, like the previous post said. The blazer besides for SURE. Plus I think alot of Suburban guys need the rear barn doors and tailgates rust out pretty bad from what I here.

How about a 71 72 hood pancaked to 67 profile, maybe even lower profile cowl induction hood

I would like to see Pointer Housings from 69 and 70 Steering columns made. The originals are plasic and crack. They already make 71-71 Pointer Housings.
Respectfully

Re: What parts aren't out there?
 
How about Blazer rear carpet hold downs?
