88GMCtruck's never ending 88 GMC build thread

That's what I was thinking.

You COULD make the who window a roll down like the tundras do. Idk how you would do it but if anyone could figure it out itd be you lol

This is some great progress here Dave! You have put a lot of work into this and is coming out great!

I wish I could buy that steering wheel, it looks near mint condition, so do the switches.

I could but it wouldn't be very fun in the small cab these have.

You guys know how to party; I thought hitting two in one day was a good deal,

Years ago, there was a kit produced for 400's to do just that.
Problematic & made only for a very short time.
This truck has one. I talked to the owner/builder many years ago.
He'd found a never-installled still-in-the-box kit at a flea market.
He said that if he knew what was involved he never would of started the install. But once he did, he was into it so far that he couldn't back out. Required a bunch of mods & had to remake some of the original parts that looked questionable so as to make it reliable.
He said he'd never do another.



If you look close at this pic, you can just see the window is 1/2 way rolled down. It is power.





Apologies for the hi-jack, Dave!

You do great work Dave. Truck looks amazing

I feel like I’ve seen some of this lately....

Typically 2-3 in a day is good for me, depending on which area I'm in and how much they yards have.

No worries, Al! I remember that kit from way back when, too. I don't think it's something I'd be super interested in overall, idk.

Yeah I feel like you are almost having a case of Déjà vu.
