We have a few of those also. We do it all. Everything from street rods to off road buggies.

We also have like 4-5 tri-5's in here currently.

Well the door handles look stock. But they are not. The 48 had twist down door handles. We changed it to the push button 1954 models. But since we are using Modern Gm latches, we needed an electric handle. So we took these stock handles, found a switches to fit inside machined a new push button to that was shorter. So now the stock handles are electric. They can be turned off and on with the ISIS system. No need for locking mechanism. But the interior handle is still mechanical.



Here is what a lengthened door that is done to look stock would look like. This door has been sectioned 1.75", it has been lengthened 3", and the top was chopped 1.5". it took 4 doors to be able to make each door and have all the factory seams line up to look OEM.



Back when it was bare metal.

Well there is not much to see really. Just wires. But the master cell can be controlled with a key fob like a car alarm. But when you lock the car it can roll up the windows and ignore any inputs. So the door handles would be dead giving you the same affect as a locked door. The ISIS is just a system that can be custom built for your application and allows a new way of thinking.

They should have that done, but I know they will have the glove box and bed strips.
