Under hood Pictures - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

VA72C10 · 03-08-2008, 09:10 AM

I am trying to make some decisions on parts to order and would appreciate any pictures you may have. I have a 1970 w/ a 350. I love chrome and the truck will be blue. I am going back and forth between painting the inner fenders black, blue to match the exterior, or getting the chrome ones. I would love to see pictures of painted and chrome ones. I've seen the black of course. Thanks in advance.

Is that an electric motor driving a hydraulic pump?

VA72C10 · 06-04-2008, 09:36 PM

I'll post my current pic since you all brought this post back up. It has a long way to go, but is a real good start. Already have installed a power brake booster and power steering setup since this picture. Have the inner fenders and will be painting them blue to match the exterior. Keeping the firewall gloss black. Painting a new (old sanded down) radiator support, hinges, and the latch blue as well. Just bought a ton of billet/chrome engine dress up parts as well from heater hoses, to rad hose, to pulleys, loom, etc....

Andy4639, What set up are you running on the a/c. It looks like a newer drier, what year did the evaperator com from. Very interested in doing mine like this before long.

Looks like electric conversion. Those are batteries beside the motor I think.
The cyclinder thing looks like a electric motor.
