looking better and better....i love this thread...thanks for all the pics....

Maybe next year I'll be able to do a big tour in the 'burb. It's only about 1600 km from Edmonton, to your neck of the woods.

Just promise not to laugh, my 'burb won't measure up (well, it will in length, just not in mods:lol: ), but I work on it when I can. Motor swap coming soon.

Wow. I'm very impressed! I think it's time to start taking some welding classes.

That is flat out the sickest thing I have seen. True talent.

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

You are a master! :metal: Keep up the progress!

Mike,
Thanks buddy... I almost choked when I saw this. Absolutely amazing... Do you remember the photochop I did of one a while ago... Yours is pretty darn close!

Can't wait to see it done. :)

looking very nice...what's the plan for the wheels? I think it needs larger rims with a little more meat on em...

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

Do I remember...:rolleyes:;) I think I have every chop of one ever posted on the net:hm: All were inspiring, leading to this! Including yours!!!

I'm going with either the same wheel/tire combo as Gringoloco's Blazer (except chrome), or that but 22x9 in the rear. Still trying to decide...

Thats amazing. Sure to be on a magazine someday

More on the wheels: Here's a quick mspaint job stretching the current wheels to 20/22 and a little drop. I think we may have a verdict :)

Are you going to do air suspension?

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

I have to say I like the daisy wheels, but the coy's should look good too. Here's a crappy MSpaint chop to make a quasi-Nomad from your now shorty burb...

This is by no means a Frizzle needs to do this to his, just a quick MS doodle to see what my mind was thinking of when I thought of a 69 Nomad. To make the porportions work better for a traditional 2dr nomad I had to stretch the front door, add the slanted b-pillar, eliminate the 3rd door and add the chrome window divider bar for the quarter glass.

Hijack over...

Absolutely!
Interesting idea. Kinda reminds me of this one:

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

I like the chrome rims better (torque thrusts maybe?) to match the 69-70 chrome grille and bumpers....

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

Awesome bro .... freekin' awesome! :metal:

You, sir, are my hero!

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

I’m speechless!
That is one sweet ride my man.
Well done! :thumbs:

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

Awesome is the only word I can say, and to do it in that amount of time is inspiring.

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

FF, I'm amazed at your creation! I would love to see it in person sometime.:metal:

Btw, I saw this several years ago on this board and kept a copy. I don't have a clue who it belongs to though.

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

'preciate it my brothas! I agree about the chrome wheels. I want the chrome versions of Gringoloco's (Coy C5).

Brad, that's a photochop of mine! :lol: Here's the original:

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

Amazing work. I can't believe I missed this thread before. You need to drive it up to Seattle for some of the shows - or chop Mark's so he can drive it by my office!

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
 

LOL...I like how you think...well the second thought anyway =)

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
