Here are a couple of before and after my buddy did the paint and body. I am getting closer to completion. Rims on order, next to save up for interior.

Bishops Trucks · 12-01-2007, 02:27 PM

Looks good, what type of wheels are you getting?

CAL 58 GMC · 12-01-2007, 02:36 PM

Cool! Are those wider fenders in back!

my67chevytruck · 12-01-2007, 02:46 PM

Bishop , I ordered AR Hopster 18 x8 3'' BS and 20 x 10 3.5" BS

Cal, yes those are FiberGlassed and are 3" wider than stock. Thanks for the comments.

Looks great!!!! Whose rear fenders did you use? I'm thinking of going that way myself.

Thanks

Steve

my67chevytruck · 12-03-2007, 08:47 AM

Steve: I used USBody glass fenders and steps. I purchased these many years ago. You can inquire and see if they are still making these.

Bishop, I am still pondering the idea of keeping the suburban seats and console of possibly switching to impala seats and another console. I am thinking of a Tan interior but that could change... Now to talk Cal58GMC into some interior pics

Kim57 · 12-03-2007, 03:04 PM

Your truck looks great. I can't wait untill I get mine that far.

Cal, Thanks for the comment. I would like to figure out what i am going to do with the interior. I am pondering installing airride shockwaves front and rear.... Decisions... Decisions...

Since you have a Camaro clip, shockwaves would be a perfect choice for your front. I can't tell you how happy I am that I used the shockwaves.

Cal, I was thinking that i have been researching and pondering bags for a year or so, and think airride shockwaves would be the way to go.. Thanks

orgalmeister · 12-03-2007, 06:09 PM

Thanks. Did you have any issues with them fitting? I heard that some of these oversized fenders needed a little work. Not referring to USBody in particular.

No fitment issues. just measured alot and drilled the holes. I did have the rear lowers pie cut and extended out to match my roll pan.
