Re: 78 K20 custom delux "modern meets vintage" build thread

OK,

finally did get a few more things done. A little winter work as well.

For starters, this is a reproduction with a little twist of the original Vic Hickey roll bars that were available for these trucks in the 70īs. The top line is not straigh though, I had it rolled to match the roof line. Looks more slick that way. Instead of thin wall 2" DOM, this here is made out of 1.75"x.120 wall chromoly tubing. Itīll tie into the frame, just like the cab cage will, when the new body is on. Oh and 4 9" offroad lights will go on top, for that truely vintage look!

enjoy:
