I'm using two of the factory bed tubs, to accomodate the extra width. Should look pretty good when done.
The bed door, you'll see it won't look funny and appear factory.

Hey Nick, are you gonna have your truck ready for some of the local shows?
Summer Nats or the summer show in Marlborough and there is a show in Dedham as well, at the Dedham Estates?
I'd like to see that bad boy in person and meet up.:thumbsup:

No way I got another year probably till it's done, however I'm around all summer if you'd like to come check it out. How big is the Dedham one, haven't been but I did a lot of work on a buddies truck (pic below) and he may bring it over.

That looks killer Nick!!!
Awesome job. The one in Dedham is not too big, not too small. It was fun, last year was the first year I went. A lot of different cars.:cheers:

Very nice! Man blue is just by downfall. Every car/truck Ive done has been blue. Im trying hard to fight it for the Camaro project,lol. That pic isnt helping:lol:

Thanks guys, he loves it, I'm glad I was able to help him out with it.

hmm
 
just because I'm already waiting for updates, is there any way you can fabroc the rest of the tubbing to imitate the factory looking? and, aren't you going to use airbags in the front? I can't wait to see the whole frame finished and running

GMracer 05-26-2009 07:30 AM

Ive been working on the rear tubs, and yes, I'll get some pics soon once I get some worth it. Also yes, I'm using DA shockwaves upfront, with internal ride height sensors, air all the way around. Laying on frame, 5" ride height and about 9" of total lift.

I'm going to run sheetmetal inners up front also.

Thanks guys! :cheers:
