You should patent this and then sell your idea to classic industries or lmc truck.

Never could get enough interest up to make another batch so never did have the opportunity to make more. Been quite a while since I gauged interest though. Mine are still doing great and I love them.

Just got back from vacation guys. Looks like there could be some pretty good interest here. Let me reach out to the machine shop and see what I can do. I will post back up in this thread when I get the cost back from them. If anybody else is interested, let me know.

This is pretty cool. WAY out of my consideration $-wise but I think it's pretty cool that UATahoe went to all that effort. Nice work!

This thread is a blast from the past. It was a fun project for sure. Unfortunately not making anymore though. I do have one set of 4 available which is my original set. I just recently bought some TMI door panels, seats, and dash for an interior overhaul so I don’t need my originals now. If anybody is interested just shoot me a message.
