Looks great! How did you attach the mesh to your cowl?

Inthuwind · 02-22-2007, 03:50 PM

Hey Putter, you have a pic of underneath the cowl vent? I'd like to know how you mounted the screen? Thanks.

raoul.duke · 02-22-2007, 06:08 PM

here's my trick mod....it only took about 30 seconds to do

johnnywagon · 02-22-2007, 06:27 PM

Kinda low-tech and easy. I mounted 2 pairs of Pilot brand fog & driving lights (one pair clear, one amber) in my bumper marker light holes. Yes, its on a 4x4 but I think it would look good a lowered rig too.

Thanks for the kind words guys. I didn't really make a "build thread", but I do have a thread with more info and pics here.> http://www.67-72chevytrucks.com/vboa...highlight=fuel

fully custom truck

Frizzle Fry · 02-24-2007, 12:32 AM

Another member now owns this truck, but I rounded the bed corners (proof of concept run for my 61), made the door panels from deluxe/standard panels combined (I thought they looked pretty cool), and put F150 side mirrors on it:

What seats are those?

Frizzle Fry · 02-24-2007, 12:49 AM

Then on the Suburban... Is a 476 a custom touch?

Door panels (still not fully complete), new inserts in the seats (as seen via camera phone pic), Keeping the dealer installed roof rack (it's sorta custom, right?), and I just finished making these covered fiberglass kick panels. I'll post the installed pics later.

Frizzle Fry · 02-24-2007, 12:52 AM

Kick panels before covering, and the rack...

c10crazy · 02-24-2007, 10:02 AM

Frizzle Fry- how will you mount the door panel inserts?. Are you going to install the pull knobs for the air vents so they are still functional?. Cool Burb!

I've epoxied hardwood blocks to the back of the inserts. I'll just use wood screws through the panels and maybe some glue. I have the rear deluxe panels for making the rear inserts too.

Yes, drilling holes for the vent pull bracket is the next step on the kick panels.

The gas filler is clean. Well done! Is the MC/Booster a simple install?
