The Envoy interior is mostly stripped. Will certainly be nice working with completely rust-free metal!:metal:
But wow, what a lot of wiring! :gmc2: |
Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
False wood floor to cover it up??? Nice to see its moving along.

Stopped over from the 60-66 board to check out the burb/panel selection over here. What your doing, takes vision, talent, skill, and LOTS of guts - I applaud you efforts and look forward to the updates. Subscribed!

The Envoy dash is apart. Took almost 4 hours!! What a lot of wires. The good thing is, every time I take something off the Envoy, it appears like its going to fit even better!

UPDATE! The burb is completely stripped. Even the dash is out. Discovered the floor is a single sheet of plywood, mounted under the wheel wells. How did they do that!?! It must be a factory Ambulance. Found original 'army' green paint.
Hope to have the body sittin on the Envoy by early January. Once it is test fit, I'll run it to the dip tank. |
Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
I'll admit I was skeptical but after seeing it in person and talking to the body guy it looks like it will not be that difficult. Lots of details but doable. I had a fun and interesting afternoon at BBeep's place, thanks for the hospitality John.

Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
After having the "pleasure" of driving an Envoy for work the last couple of weeks I gotta ask - why an Envoy? I have the same "300hp" motor and it's a joke. I've never driven something so boring and underpowered as this inline. Where the "300hp" claim comes from is beyond me. I would still have a hard time believing it has 200 hp...plus the handeling is absolutely terrible and the awd is useless on anything other than snow (got it stuck in about 3" of mud).
I'm really not trying to rain on your parade - just wondering what made you choose an Envoy. I totally understand the classic body on modern technology concept, but why not a v8 based trailblazer? They make an SS Trailblazer that has like 400hp or something rediculous... |
Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
Mr. Tucker,
What good does you comment do for this thread. If you want to know why he chose an Envoy then ask why did you choose an Envoy. Your comment in my opinion is trolling and can be done without. |
Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
I second that!
|
Re: 52 GMC Envoy Burb meld/build
I love the idea, can't wait to see more!!
