Re: Morphing a 1956 Chevy 3200 onto a 2001 Tahoe Chassis

Turns out the door openings did shrink a bit. That's a nuisance. Not sure how given I never removed the steps or the pillar apertures, but so be it. They all needed to be force fit anyway.

Turns out that the Tahoe fuel filler location puts it right at the back of the LR fender, so I cut a fuel door assembly out of a 99 Chrysler Minivan and flipped it vertically. Fits perfect.

Lot of wire in this thing, but other than fabricating mounts for the two A Pillar fuse and junction blocks, it goes in OK.

The bed height is changed, but it turns out that I incorrectly set the bed position level at rest, and it should have had a fair amount of rake to it. So once I repositioned it, I probably could have almost left it the original height.
