Re: 1972 GMC Using 2003 Chevy 2500HD duramax Chassis

I think the white would match the white top nicely, but what else is going to be chrome?

Can you post some more pictures of the body mounts you fabbed? Or anything else that you fabricated that hasnt been shown yet? I have been scouring ebay and copart.com and other auction sites for a while now looking to do this same type of hybrid/body swap project. Did you do any preventative maintainence to the truck before you fasten the fenders on for good like ARP head studs, lift pump and EGR delete? The EGR delete I would definiately make a priority, there are a ton of threads on duramaxforums.com that show how gummed up the EGR can make a duramax. LB7s are known for injector failures and a good fuel filter/seperator and a lift pump can help prevent those costly repairs.
