Re: 82 Silverado restomod - turbo LSx build
No progress on the truck, so I thought I would update you guys as to what I have been doing.
Some douchenozzle decided to break into my Miata and pull the phone mount off the dash. No clue why, I never lock it and there was nothing of any real value in it. Luckily I have a spare Miata. I've been meaning to pull the last useful parts off of it and scrap it. Now seemed like a good time. First I pulled the doors. I also removed the deck lid but I didn't get a pic of it. Looks like a deck lid. Started pulling the dash. Not as hard as you would think, honestly. Just very dusty. Not a whole lot left on my parts car at this point. Slightly more electronics than my square body. This weekend I'm going to pull the wheels off for a spare set and then take it across the scales. Dash all out and sitting on the tailgate of my 82, waiting for me to clean it up and put it in this weekend. I promise as soon as I'm done with this I'll pull the drivetrain from the donor Yukon

Re: 82 Silverado restomod - turbo LSx build
I'll be watching this one for sure. I love watching the interiors being transformed. I know you said you didn't like the door panel carpet, maybe you can do something like this. I had this one my doors for a short time, but I went back to the carpet.
What are your plans for the tailgate band? Are you going to keep it?

Re: 82 Silverado restomod - turbo LSx build
Well, if you decide to sell it, I'd be interested.

Re: 82 Silverado restomod - turbo LSx build
Looks like that Miata, the Firebird, and that Lexus have been sitting for a good long time...
BTW, I got the switch and finally got it installed. It all works good, solved my problem with that part. Thanks again for the deal.

Glad the switched worked for you, let me know if there's anything else you need, the Yukon is getting stripped next.

People think I'm crazy for having spare cars until something like this happens!

Re: 82 Silverado restomod - turbo LSx build
Yeah it took more like 9 months, but I am back to building my truck now. I’m strongly considering a manual transmission swap, anyone willing to talk me into/out of it?
