Re: 68 GMC to a 2003 Tahoe chassis

To bring everyone up to speed, one of the things I am going to be trying with this build is to incorporate the firewall and some of the floor board from the donor truck into this 68 GMC. The reason for this is so I don't have to figure out what GM already spent millions of dollars designing. Simple things like the gas pedal, the brake assembly, the heater core and AC cores, etc.... You get the idea. It is a serious pain to try and relocate all that stuff in a vehicle that was never designed to house those parts, not that it can't and hasn't been done before, but because I don't want to spend all winter making mounts and everything to hold and connect all the stuff to the existing cab.

If it is done correctly, and it will be trust me, this will save me a ton of hours of fab time and allow me to get this project on the road a lot quicker. Also it will have the benefit of looking and working like an OEM product.

That is the plan for right now at least...

Stay tuned!
