My vote would go to DMAX.................Love it

Is that a new door skin on the 4th door that was sectioned together?

**71blksuper4x4** · 10-27-2014, 05:09 PM

DMAX it shall be! Thanks guys

As far as the door skin, yes it is a new outer door skin that I have cut the correct length, but will still need some tweaking. I figured this way I could do the bodywork front and back until its right. Trevor

**Dieselwrencher** · 10-27-2014, 07:51 PM

I'd go with DMAX on the emblem too. It'll look sweet.

72 Copper C-10 · 10-28-2014, 12:51 AM

Finally!! I found out why I can't find tow hooks for my truck..... Because Trevor has them all! Lol

i love the build its very cool I can't wait to see more!!

A member asked to see my roof currently. I am adding truck headliners into the cab, thus why so much cut out.

1972K20 · 11-11-2014, 10:59 PM

This is a great looking build!

**71blksuper4x4** · 11-15-2014, 07:35 PM

Switched gears....been working on the cab and chassis frame preparing it for the 4x4 conversion.

ryanroo · 11-15-2014, 09:49 PM

with your attention to detail, i am excited to see some chassis and powertrain stuff!

**71blksuper4x4** · 11-16-2014, 10:26 AM

The start of cutting brackets off.

**71blksuper4x4** · 12-30-2014, 09:39 PM

Been fighting cold temps and the holidays with not much time off. Life of a Budman!

**Dieselwrencher** · 12-31-2014, 05:04 PM

Nice work! It's hard to get anything extra done this time of year!

7dee2 · 12-31-2014, 07:35 PM

6600DURAMAX · 01-01-2015, 12:18 PM

Making some good progress!!

Looks great, I wished I had your talent.

**Dieselwrencher** · 01-27-2015, 08:10 PM

Great work! The inner roof will look sweet when it's done!

**71blksuper4x4** · 01-27-2015, 11:14 PM

Been warm so I am trying to enjoy it while it lasts. Close to having one side done to tie in the inner roof. It sure is stout now. Going to be 1 big headliner. Going to need a few sets of trim.

68 Crew Cab · 01-31-2015, 01:28 AM

Great pictures, I plan on referring to them when I tackle the 4th door.

**71blksuper4x4** · 02-14-2015, 06:33 PM

Finally had a day to work on it. Got my inner skin almost all welded up and started to mock up my outer roof skin. I'll still need to grind my inner welds down and run my wiring for the clearance lights and compass map light rear view from my 03 donor before welding it in.

ryanroo · 02-14-2015, 11:16 PM

this is impressive.

**71blksuper4x4** · 02-15-2015, 11:07 AM

Thanks Ryan, been a lot of work. I'm trying some newer ideas for roofs and been dialing in body lines along the way. I'll get the roof done and dial in the rear doors. Trevor

Not a whole lot of progress, but pretty close to rough sitting the cab on its new frame. She at least rolls now.

**72 tigger** · 02-21-2015, 08:30 PM

Making progress- will be exciting to see the cab on the chassis. What is the wheelbase? Keep up the good work!
