Re: Dirty Dianah (No)... Bagged 72 Stepside/LSx/T56
Thanks Manny! Yesterday and day prior got the brake booster installed, clutch pedal linkage created and installed/mated to t56, steering column mated with the new cab, and Painless Wiring harness installed. Doing a matching instrument cluster to match the console, glove box door and fuel filler door. Painted interior semi-flat black with silver A-pillars, B-pillars and ceiling. Gives great depth and ties the bucket seats into the look. Also black sun visors with silver screw heads. It's the little things, you know? Speaking of which, have a optional authentic grenade for a shift knob. It feels great in my hand, and adds some length to the handle.

Re: Dirty Dianah (No)... Bagged 72 Stepside/LSx/T56
As of last night, the wiring was done, nicely loomed and routed neatly in anticipation of the cluster being installed. Will take real pics today.

Looks awesome brother. Digging the shift knob. Also interested to see what the dash looks like once you all finish it. I know it's going to be SCHAWEET!

You and Walter are making huge amounts of progress, it's nice having someone around that knows their stuff isn't it.
I can't wait to see what you guys come up with next.

Oh yes, what was supposed to be a simple motor/tranny swap turned into a full frame off custom build...but great things have come out of this build, including a friendship.

Re: Dirty Dianah (No)... Bagged 72 Stepside/LSx/T56
Thanks Manny!

Thanks 66redw/white!

Here is some more progress to bring everyone current:


Used the Energy Suspension poly cab and core support bushings to get Dianah on the right track to comfortable and safe travels. Cab is mounted, interior is painted and wired up. We are going to do a custom gauge cluster to match the glove box. But, I am getting ahead of myself. Here are some pics.

Re: Dirty Dianah (No)... Bagged 72 Stepside/LSx/T56


Trim and bolstered fender openings to allow for more clearance laid out. Eventually will have to do the Porterbuilt Hood Hinges.


This is what it looks like laid out....anyone notice anything different?
