How long is the back door the same as a normal door panel, which I think is 39.5? or a normal surburban which is?

extd56 · 03-21-2010, 08:41 PM

The back door on the crew cab is the same as the third door Suburban door and has a Subuurban rear door panel on it.

extd56 · 03-23-2010, 12:42 PM

I got the new seat covers installed on the seats but need to redo the blue on the doors. I plan on being in Pleasanton this weekend for the car show.

Me too. I'm hoping to find a new truck. Maybe I'll see you there.

extd56 · 03-27-2010, 11:42 PM

I took the truck to the show in Pleasanton today, lots of questions. I think I could have sold it a few times. I also got the new tonneau cover installed on Friday, it took about 10 minutes total to get it installed and I never did find the directions.

CARZ1968 · 03-28-2010, 02:34 AM

Incredible job guys!
Great build thread,informative with tons of pics to help us all out.

Ricks' 72C10 · 03-28-2010, 03:25 AM

Looks Good!

What Tonneau cover is that? I like it, and I would like to get one for mine.

extd56 · 03-28-2010, 10:28 AM

It is a truxedo and was almost too easy to install, still looking for the directions.

Mayo · 03-28-2010, 11:01 AM

It looks better every time I see it. That is a very nice truck.

onlyifihadachevy · 04-12-2010, 11:07 PM

Does this truck have 2 vins? I saw one earlier which looked to be in the front and one in the rear.

extd56 · 04-12-2010, 11:52 PM

No, just the one on the rear pillar.

Rick Allmon · 04-26-2010, 01:54 AM

Hey how about a dvd about this build, with all your pics and info,for a price of coures
thanks RICKS72

**Yukon Jack** · 05-21-2010, 08:50 AM

Somehow I never saw the finished truck - I am floored - that is so incredible!!!!!!!!!!!

**D.PASSMORE** · 05-21-2010, 03:14 PM

Do you mind giving up the paint codes for the Blue and White. I'm getting near to squirting color on my Blazer project. I've looked at Metalic Med.Montana Blue but would like something a little darker to compare. I would appriciate it. DP

Splash4195 · 05-21-2010, 03:35 PM

I would like to own a crew C10 they look sweet!

The blue is a 2006 Dodge blue from a truak and the white is the off white color for our trucks I believe. I can look up the codes if you want.

**D.PASSMORE** · 05-22-2010, 07:05 AM

Do you think it is - Patriot Blue Pearl B7/WB7 2006 Durango?

Got any pic's of the interior?

extd56 · 05-26-2010, 03:06 PM

It is a Sherwin Williams paint code number 62221. It was on the full size Dodge truck, not sure about the Durango

Rodk65 · 06-28-2010, 02:13 PM

Beautiful truck. I hope you enjoy it. What is that steering wheel from. That is the wheel I am looking to install on my 69 K10.

**Dieselwrencher** · 06-28-2010, 03:03 PM

I think that steering wheel is off of 88-91 chevy trucks.

Mayo · 06-28-2010, 06:24 PM

My dads 88 van has one of them wheels too

jbclassix · 06-28-2010, 08:36 PM

I got mine out of a 1st gen s-15 Jimmy

It is out of a 1991 Suburban, the same one that gave its life for the engine, transmission, transfer case, wiring, gas tank and axles for this build.

jbclassix · 06-28-2010, 09:36 PM

So I am using a 91 suburban power train for my 70 Suburban. (350/4L80E/241) I wanted to know what you did for your exhaust routing. Also, what did you do to re-use your column? I was thinking of coming over my t-case and then coming into a single exhaust. And for my column, I was planning on finding a 4 speed detent plate.
