Pictures Say It All................................................very Nice.

Bowtiefreak · 10-03-2005, 08:23 AM

What's the color? Is it a custom mix

**Yukon Jack** · 10-03-2005, 12:31 PM

Wow, that is an amazing truck!

greens69 · 10-03-2005, 01:42 PM

Hello, and Thanks for all the compliments. It is great to finally have it out on the road and out of my shop. The seat is a 67-72 bench seat with some tweaking to add character to it. The paint is PPG Global Karisma Blue..

Thanks again,

Steve

Attn pat,

That is my sub in the photos. It was just parked in the back ground when we took the photos.

Jeff
I think I saw you once at cruisen the coast last year! I hate that they have a disaster area there this year! I tried to catch up to you to get a better view but It didn't happen.

Steve,

Very nice, you guys put out some great rides. Are you planning to add any gas struts to that hood or not? I've got the same hinges on my burb, but need some ideas on where to mount the struts. Let me know if you've done this. Thanks for your help.

Greg

djracer · 10-08-2005, 03:08 AM

that is one AWESOME RIDE!

piecesparts · 10-13-2005, 03:35 AM

Can someone elaborate on what brand of front suspension components are there? Are the upper and lower A arms and the hardware to mount to the frame from Air Ride Tech? I have a 68 that is need of some dropping.

98L150 · 10-13-2005, 08:09 AM

the front clip is a Jim Myers Racing hub to hub front bolt on clip

*72CSTC5* · 10-16-2005, 02:12 AM

Is that a complete custom frame on that truck. Also, what shop is that, that the truck was shot in? That truck is absolutely beautiful and nicely executed. Nice job.

greens69 · 10-16-2005, 10:46 AM

Thank you. .... It is a stock frame that has been heavily modified with a custom front crossmember from Jim Meyer racing and the rear has been step notched with a 4 link setup. Those pictures were shot in my father in law's and my shop at our house.

thanks,
Steve

subtle71 · 10-17-2005, 10:47 PM

Yeah, I guess that will do! You know, if you are the type that is into drop dead gorgeous trucks! And I thought the '69 was fine!

Jeff, I need to check that out next time I am working over that way. Last time I talked with you was ShowFest. (Parked right beside you with my old Harley truck. Replaced it with a 2005 GMC 2500HD that is already under construction.)

See you later,
Dean

crawlin70 · 10-19-2005, 01:40 PM

that truck is awsome!

where did you get the billet hinges for the hood? we are in the process of building a 72gmc right now and i would love to have those hinges

**gregfull** · 10-19-2005, 02:43 PM

The hinges came from here http://www.sachserodshop.com

bios · 11-11-2005, 01:19 AM

Very nice truck, Congrats on a job very well done.

muddpile · 11-17-2005, 07:45 PM

Do you have any pics of your other truck? If its the one I'm thinking of, its kind of a dark orange on top, white on the bottom with flames separating em? I think its in the background of one of your pics up the page. I've seen one picture of it, but never an interior or engine shot. If its the truck I'm thinking of, its the inspiration for mine.

72wascal · 11-17-2005, 08:05 PM

Great looking truck dude. Lot of pain staking work but it all pays off. I am nearing completion on my interior pretty soon. Satisfaction is never so sweet.

glock35ipsc · 11-23-2005, 05:53 PM

WOW! Looks awesome! Gives me a great big shove to get mine done faster!

Great job!

Low84 · 11-25-2005, 09:18 PM

Great job. That truck is lookin killer.
