Joe your truck is looking great

firedrag79 · 09-30-2008, 09:34 PM

Does your tailgate function correctly with the back bumper pulled in so far?

joe231 · 09-30-2008, 10:13 PM

you should definitely be proud of this truck
amazing!

Square84 · 09-30-2008, 10:42 PM

one question where did you get the tailgate band?

flamingbig10 · 09-30-2008, 11:03 PM

the tailgate band is from a blazer

spudz · 09-30-2008, 11:59 PM

first off...beautiful truck.... really nice.....Glad to see people doing quality builds.. I wish I could have one that nice.....second.... I honestly dont think the GMC grill is very atractive.

djracer · 10-01-2008, 07:11 AM

I still vote for this Stull grill. Trucks lookin sweet. Go see Wimpee and get that xover added!

D13 · 10-01-2008, 09:13 AM

Needs the GMC emblem. The GMC grilles are much better than the chevy. The Stull is OK but outdated. Maybe a lazer cut flames in stainless?

Then you can send me the GMC grille... I promise to treat it well...

If you want to 'date' something, put one of those 'stainless flames' grilles in. The Stull may not look modern, but it still looks good.

**lolife99** · 10-01-2008, 11:58 AM

I vote for the 89-91 Chevrolet grill. I know everyone has it,... but I like it.

hot trux · 10-01-2008, 01:24 PM

Way to go Joe!!! saaweet! I like the GMC grille you have in her now with no nameplate. Again, great job! Can I have it?

Fer79 · 10-01-2008, 02:48 PM

very nice, great job, i like...

**Captkaos** · 10-01-2008, 04:38 PM

Looks Good Joe! I like the body molding and the grille.

BTW 2 week ETA on getting a mold for the rear doors...

I think that with the molding and the GMC grill, it will make people that are not in the know if GM really did may one of this from the factory.

Awsome truck, your grill and tailgate/bumper treatment is the way I went on my old dually in the mid 90's, except that you finished yours....I never got the solid band and the handle flipped...

yes, it works perfect. just be sure to have your gate down to get the clearance when pulling the bumper in. thanks joe
