Re: 1972 Chevy Pickup Project.
Unfortunately it looks so good, few people will know how much time you put in on this. How about some interior photo s when you get time...firewall looks great..BTW... Is the truck going to be black.?

Re: 1972 Chevy Pickup Project.
That's is very true that no one will know. It is going to be red......bright red. I'll get some of the interior this evening.

Re: 1972 Chevy Pickup Project.
Looking awesome. Question for you, since it looks like the bed is being painted in pieces are you planning on using any type of seam sealer between the panels when re-assembling? Just trying to get a plan for myself. Thanks
|
Re: 1972 Chevy Pickup Project.
the panels will be painted on all sides of the seams but i will still use a small amount of seam sealer when reassembly. Every panel was assembled before to fit the panels then taken back apart for paint.

I have been working on my Dash panel and my console. I need some opinions on what you guys think. I'm not too sure about it myself. They will both get sealed and painted.

Re: 1972 Chevy Pickup Project.
The center console looks good. I combined a 72 C10 body with a 2002 Dodge diesel chassis & used the Dodge instrument panel too. I used a extra glove box door (which is the same size as the original gauge bezel) to mount my gauges & had the outer rim chromed & you could paint the rest black. Just a thought. You're making nice progress!

I got the rest of the things mounted in the console....heated seat control, electric locks and window, etc. |
Re: 1972 Chevy Pickup Project.
That red looks like the color I am painting mine right now. Looks like painter has done a nice job.

Awesome, work on all of this, your painter is doing a fine job too. Don't know what your plans are for finishing the console. I think the console would feel better if it was covered in vinyl.....It looks fantastic BTW, I used a hard plastic 1 out of a 90's truck and I am looking for some way to add a pad or cushion. Glove box door works OK but like the rest of your build it's not easy either, I am still trying to get my speedo and gas gauge to work. These gauges are out of 93 Caprice.

I was planning to send my ecm off to LT1swap.com and have them re-program it. Any new updates? |
Re: 1972 Chevy Pickup Project.
Well my painter is a complete idiot. I had to fire him and hire a "real" painter.
