If you were going that route, I think the hhr tails would have been perfect.

Keep up the good work.

Awesome! I'll PM you after a trip down is planned. Yep...I got myself a magazine.....it's called " The 1947-1959 Chevrolet & GMC Pickups Message Board" and is found in a near future picture thread! lol. The camera is mandatory for outings....you never know just what or who you'll run into!

Hey Bad71chev406sbc is that a sun visor in your windshield? Did you make it?

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
 

Since you are building an Envoy based Suburban I figured you might like to see some other Envoy conversions

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
 

I don't like hte steering wheel in that one...

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
 

very nice looking truck... in addition to not liking the steering wheel, im not that crazy about the center console and lower dash(under steering wheel)

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
 

It would be nice to know if this is a drivetrain swap, chassis swap, or full floor & firewall swap like mine is undergoing.

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
 

I talked to this guy for a while and he said that he left the Envoy body on the chassis and put the 53 chevy cowl over it. He said that he tipped the front fenders down and redrilled the holes to give the hood a little more slope.

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
 

Can you get me a contact?

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
 

Wonder what wheels those are and how he attached the caps...?

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
 

i will look for his info. the wheels are the little spares with regular tires. I forget what he got them off of

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
 

Those are the standard steel wheels that they use for spares. Got one on the left front of my trailblazer right now. Has a full size tire on it.

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
 

Any new updates? Love the build:metal::metal:

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
 

Wheres bbeep starting to worry now hope all is well

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
 

I'M STILL HERE! Thanks for the concern. Just doing honeydo's around the house. My wife had her reunion at our house--we had to plan for 150 people. Anyway, back to the important stuff. The truck has made some progress. Along with the pics, I'm replacing the broken power steering pump reservoir tomorrow--then off to the radiator shop to 'meld' a 52 radiator casing to connect to the Envoy inlet & outlet. Did a little tire fitment at the local Les Schwab Saturday, and will probably go with 26.5 inch height tire all the way around--not sure if I will go with 17, 18, or 20 or a combo. The overall height will be the same because it is all-wheel drive.
I do like my GMC's, but this one will NOT be yellow!!
