Re: 69 slammed, 22"/24" bbc shaved clean

thank you guys for the compliments. right now we are on a temporary roll with the c10 so I am really enjoying the progress. check out the filler panel/ radiator support built today. I am really happy with this. The square panel on top of the radiator support will get cut out and filled with a polished stainless steel screen. I like the way the hood latch is molded in to the filler panel.

I like the dimpled look much more than an open speed hole look for sure. It is definitely a different look and feel.

Thumbs up Re: 69 slammed, 22"/24" bbc shaved clean

I just finished reading the whole tread. WOW!! I'm amazed at such creative geniuses on this site! I love the name of your company and on the pillow cases on the bed. I just left Florida during the 4th, I would have rode by your business if I'd have known about it.

I do too. I think they both have their place but the dimple really works here.

your not kidding about the talent on this forum. I have learned everything about c10's right here. You will have to come by next time you are in town. We love to have visitors.

We worked on the dash this past week. With all of the metal I just didnt want to have a dash pad inside. I am not sure what we will do with the dash but for now we have built a new "nose" on the dash and we will see how it gets finished. What do you guys think?

Re: 69 slammed, 22"/24" bbc shaved clean

Hopefully I will be starting to work on my truck in the next few months. While I have been slowly gathering parts, I have been quietly lurking on this site for inspiration and your build is what I have been following the closest. What amazing talent and fresh new ideas. There is nothing I don't like about this build and I look forward to checking the progress.

I noticed on that last picture of the dash, the area where the gauge panel goes has been cut. I would assume this means some type of custom gauge panel is in the works. Do you have any details of that yet?

No custom gauge panel planned. I have a billet aluminum one that looks close to the stock panel.

Baby steps but still rolling on the c10. Built an enclosure to mount a 10" sub in the center console. Finished the outer detail on the wrap around for the bucket seats.

Re: 69 slammed, 22"/24" bbc shaved clean

I love it. As for the question you asked. I think you should keep the body color on the outside and if you paint the inside make sure the paint matches the leather you choose. It looks amazing great job

I am trying to make it right. I am changing the name of my build to "The Money Pit"!

I told you guys we were using some of the polish stainless steel mesh. I any of you are looking for some McMasterCarr is a great place to buy it. There are lots of options. I like the way the mesh finished off the subwoofer detail in the center console.

The silver on the bed looks awesome, and I love the way that chassis looks especially with that big block between the frame rails. Where did you get the valve covers at?

I cant wait to see the 2 tone cab tomorrow. I just came up with a blank on the valve covers. I will look through my receipts and see if I can find the one for the valve covers. Too many parts, not enough brain cells to keep it straight!

Re: 69 slammed, 22"/24" bbc shaved clean

Here are a few more paint booth pictures. If you look real close you can see the two tone.......almost a ghost two tone. If you look on the door jam you will see it gets a little darker right at the upper body line. You may notice it on top of the hood as well. I am thinking about a darker charcoal strip in between the 2 colors. We will have all of the pieces back tomorrow and I will get some more pics.
