Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Thank you guys!
Its been a long time coming and I cant wait to get it to 100%. I was able to get the LED taillights (purchased from Robznob) and side marker lights installed. See video. LED video I was also getting my NOS taillight trim that I purchased from a forum member out and had to order new trim clips as I was missing some. I will use the OEM ones but just don't have enough. Next is the tool box cover.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Hey guys so I am waiting on a few items for the bed so I thought I would start working on the interior. With the carpet kit I ordered I wanted to put holes in it without allowing the carpet to unravel so I used some 3/8" steel brake line. Heated it up with my torch. I used my all to mark the hole location and melted the carpet with the tubing. Worked pretty good. This particular hole is for my stereo amplifier board under my seats.
Also thank you guys for all the comments! I appreciate you guys checking out my build....Keeps me motivated!

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
That’s exactly how I did mine, stainless tubing and a propane torch. Makes for perfect holes.
Nice work!

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
I made a few new bedside fender supports out of stainless steel and went ahead and polished them up. Since the front of the bed is not as sturdy after the Fall Guy Doors install. I figured adding the supports would help a bunch. Now the bed sides are solid as a rock.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Hey guys I have a question.
Do you see any reason I cant put in the seat belt retractors behind the seat rather than on the sides of it? See first and last picture I pulled from the site. The black seat photo is to show where it is supposed to be I guess versus where I want to put them. the blue seat picture is a stock seat belt. I just have them mocked up and will probably install the seat just to see if they work. Any reason this wont work or pose a problem?

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Been a little while since I checked in. Got hit with Covid pretty hard. Looking great as usual. Keep it up. Like you said, spring is just around the corner.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
2 day turn around for my speaker box and some panel pieces to get covered WOW!
I decided to take the hood C H E V R O L E T lettering and add it to the speaker box filler panel that goes between the window and the top of the box. With the center counsel arm rest down you will see the CHEVROLET between the seats. He also covered my interior sun visors. They look and feel great. I do have to order some interior paint to match the saddle color leather. The last picture is how the box will look in the truck....

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
More progress, nice! Sub box looks good! Used to do custom install myself in the past and I am looking forward to doing a box for my truck. The lettering is a nice touch. Is the V going to be covered by something or is that a typo? Want shoulder belts myself. Been thinking about that kit. Not understanding the offset mounting with one bolt for the retractor. Does not seem as strong as factory.

Building the box was fun as I too used to install custom stereos back in the day!! Thank you 72T. Now I am working on custom corner panels to hide the retractors and install a set of component speakers in.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
I have been working on the interior or at least the stereo. I was able to get the rear cab corner panels made, covered and installed. Turned out pretty good I think. I still have to get the woofers installed and then I will take a completed picture.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Got the speaker box, cab corner panels and seat belts installed for the last time. Wired up the speakers and was able to turn the stereo system on.
The AudioControl amplifiers are controlled with an internal DSP(digital sound processer). Which means you have to tune it with a computer but man it works great and sounds good so far! I did not get a picture with the laptop connected but you can see the blue USB cable connected to the passenger side amplifier. I do not have the front kick panel speaker in yet but when I do I think its going to sound awesome!!! I am glad to have this completed so now I can get the seats in it and move to the next item on the list... More to come!

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
I tried something different. The Focal component speakers came with these pods. At first wanted to change them but I thought I would wrap them with the same floor wood vinyl of my bed.
The seats are the final install.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Thanks Dan. I wish mine moved as fast as yours did. Hahaha. I want to enjoy the truck. But this spring/summer for sure.
So I figured I would keep up with the theme of carrying the bed wood in the cab. Since I covered the tweeter/speaker pods with the wood vinyl. I covered the shoulder belt bolt cover also. I am waiting on the 4wd shifter boot so I can get it installed. Then I can get the door panels and the headliner. Tonight I finished up the front grill and all the lighting wiring. First time I have used LED flashers man they are loud. Tomorrow I am back at it.

I've been absent from this site for a few years now, I remember following this thread a few years ago when I did my 4x4 swap. Truck looks amazing, I love the blue on the truck!
