gauging interest, anyone interested in a 73-87 key rack? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

bigblock73 · 01-05-2011, 12:43 AM

OK, started working on this little project, and am nearly complete, just waiting for a quote from the machine shop on what it will cost to produce these.

These are 73-87 key racks, 14" wide (height varies) they are made of 16 ga steel, come ready to paint, are laser cut, and wall mount (mounting hardware included). You can paint these one color, or custom paint to match your personal trucks colors.

I have designed trucks (fleetside and stepside), Dooleys, Blazers and Suburbans...all in lowered or slightly lifted designes.

I attached a couple examples below.

I am assuming these will run $30-$35 plus shipping, but that depends on the quote.

Let me know what you think, or if you are potentially interested after reading all this. Feedback is always welcomed.

Those are amazing.

bluex · 01-05-2011, 02:16 AM

These are cool, although not what I was hoping for from the teaser you posted earlier.

Any thoughts on shrinking them down for key chains???

Paul, at the moment, no. But it is something I will look into in the near future.

IMO the dullay one looks perfect as is.

I'll probably get one to hang something from anyway, just would have a hard time deciding which version. A keychain would be awesome though....

Gordonr1973 · 01-05-2011, 02:33 AM

Yes for sure I'd like one!

ElGracho · 01-05-2011, 09:12 AM

I'm in for the dually one if you make it...

RandyP · 01-05-2011, 10:14 AM

I'd probably buy at least two if they resembled a C10/K10 stock stance. It'd look awesome in my office actually. I could replace my 25 year old MAC Tool truck keyboard.

1tonchevy · 01-05-2011, 10:47 AM

Looks awesome! Pic of the lowered dually?

yellowGT · 01-05-2011, 01:45 PM

The one I posted is the lowered variety...should it be slammed as opposed to dropped?

Back bumper would look nice if truck sat just below the arrow line to where you can just see enough of the tires. Ill get one of those then.

Pop's C-10 · 01-05-2011, 10:56 PM

SBTork · 01-05-2011, 11:17 PM

I would buy up a barn door'd style suburban if you plan on having a design for that.

Already have those done

Greenlee · 01-06-2011, 12:52 AM

I'd like to buy the slightly lifted stepside version. I bought a pair of your speaker brackets a couple of years ago and they turned out great.
