Project: Back in Black - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

sgrier · 08-05-2009, 09:43 PM

Well time to finally start my own build thread. I am starting out with a 69 SWB fleet. Going to take it down to the frame and use porterbuilt dropmembers front and rear. Going to replace the cab along with motor and trans from a 72 donor truck. I am going to try and post pics as I go. So here goes nothing. As for the title I know that it is a play on some old AC/DC, but my three year old son Dalton said that he wanted to paint the truck black. Having a little trouble with the pics. Will try to get some posted later.

sounds cool but need pics

sgrier · 08-10-2009, 09:05 PM

Having trouble posting up the pics. I keep getting a message that says there is a security token missing to inform an administrator. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

sgrier · 09-01-2009, 12:27 AM

Well still not able to get the pics up my computer skills are not up to speed. Just a little update on the progress of the truck.

I got the frame to the blaster and back it turned out great. Best $120.00 I have spent in awhile. Got one coat of primer on and ready for the next coat.

Started getting in all of the Porterbuilt stuff. Got about 6-8 more boxes coming. Got paint on what came in today. Sorry for the delay on the pics hope to have them up in the next day or so.

Here are some pics of all my toys that came in from Nathan. These are some awesome pieces. Enjoy.

sgrier · 09-17-2009, 08:06 AM

Well got some more parts in yesterday from Nate and put the wheels on order. Ordered a set of Coys 20/22 C-5's polished. A few more parts and we have a rolling chassis. Will get some pics up soon of the chassis.

sgrier · 11-24-2009, 12:22 PM

Thanks. The bolt in notch is great. It went with out many problems at all. Nate does a great job with the manufacturing side of things. If u are thinking of notching that is the way to go. Thanks again.
