Re: 67 GMC super custom build
Well I did get the shroud in and the clutch fan in. My fan blades stick out the back of the shroud only 1/4 inch. It's a nos clutch and same parts that came in the truck so this must be how it was from factory in 67. This clutch is specific to 65-67 327 trucks that have the cast iron pulley because the cast pulley has a thicker mounting base than the 68-72 stamped pulley.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
I am really close to disassembly now. I drilled the holesfor the vacuum Hose retainerson the Inner fender and decided to mount the breaker for the power accessories on the firewall closer to the power source which will be the starter battery terminal as the 60s impala used. I just have to remake this harness and the forward light and alternator harness' now. I may do those once the truck is painted and assembled.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
So today i got my new 4 row rad mounts and they were the same as the others. So off to the beltsander I went to reshape them. I took a quarter inch off all 4 of them. Now they fit like they are supposed to. Still very snug but not feel like going crush the radiator edge.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
Well I've had some bad luck recovering my seats. Went to a shop that I've used a few times and had good luck but new owners took over and my seat covers were not up to the level this truck is going to be built to. So I took it to another guy that I heard about from a friend and he said I have to recover the whole seat (minus the dark red pleats). No saving the junk work so I guess that will happen this summer sometime. Meanwhile I mounted these skirts to the base of the seat to finish off the base and a place to mount the switch. Doesn't matter if I damage the vinyl I guess. My guy said he will make it so the vinyl doesn't bunch up in the front like it does now .

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
Not sure if I'm going to put these into the back of the buddy seat but I bought them just in case. I hate not having drink holders. But they might really change that vintage appearance.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
I think im going to skip the cup holders. I cant get myself to like the look. Well I want to keep the grain look in the metal on the seat skirts so that means I can't fill any holes in them. So I have to keep the plaquard that cadillac put on all passenger side skirts because it mounts with screws. So I took it and sanded off all the engraving so I can have new engraving put on for my truck. I'm not sure what I'm going g to put on it. Any ideas from you guys?

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
Interior by Rod, Body by GMC
or GMC (large on the raised portion) and Super Custom following the shape of the emblem (you could also invert the emblem and have Super custom on the bottom) or GMC ENSpired

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
I agree on GMC on the raised portion and SUPER CUSTOM under it. Cool idea!

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
No I just used led bulbs. They look sharp and use less power.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
I found a small fuse box online and I purchased it. I'm going to add my gear vendor, heated seats fuses into it and whatever else I've added.

Re: 67 GMC super custom build
So I was packing up my original 67 door remotes i sold to kyleseal and I got to thinking I'd like to keep my 67 inner door control levers if I could make them work with the 72 door panels so I did a small modification to the 72 remotes I have to use with these door panels to let them accept the 67 handles.
