    Burb 3rd Row Seat

    Are the dimensions nearly identical so the mounting brackets could be switched perhaps with some fabrication including welding?

    Burb 3rd Row Seat

    Will an 2002 burb 3rd row seat work in a 83 k20, without too much effort?

    Can your granny open your trucks door?

    Yep, I bought some new clips after I wired them on but yet to install them and it’s been 10 years already. I put my trim back on with some 3m two sided tape.

    Transtar 2k Epoxy Primer Problem

    That sucks, nothing worse than doing that 2x. My dad was a bodyman and painter, never did a car for me ever until about 2 years before he passed we decided to paint my 88 Silverado shortbox. It didn’t need any bodywork except maybe a small ding filled here or there while we sanded down the blue...

    Black or White

    Ya, I considered that tri colored combo too but @Grit dog said it would look like a rotten pumpkin. I actually “painted” that color combo too and didn’t like it as much as I thought I would. I’m partial to white and orange. I really wanted to put a black bedliner material along the bottom so I...

    Best Spent $$ for Square Restoration

    I like having part’s around it gives you options to work on, plus, when you run out of parts that usually means you’re getting close to being finished. I will wait on the interior until the exterior is finished, great advice.

    Best Spent $$ for Square Restoration

    I like yellow too but this yellow was spray bombed, and it’s the third different color the truck was painted from originally orange. The other two colors are dark blue and white. It’s gonna be a lot of fun sanding this back down to the original color. I will probably burn through at least one...

    Bench seat adjustment

    511, and not enough legroom either. Glad to know my seat similar with 4” to spare between cab and seat back. I plan to scoot it backwards somehow, probably welding required.

    Black or White

    Took a pic off here to “paint” in an effort to see if I like black or white with orange two tone. You?

    Access panel in inner fender

    Yea, they always rust out. I figured it came off since there are bolts on the outside but found out at the junk yard they don’t come off. I wasn’t sure why and when a part is giving me trouble I just leave it alone and move on at the yard, not worth busting a knuckle or tool. I guess I will be...

    Alternator?

    Ok, thank you for the advice and prompt response.

    Alternator?

    1999 Bonneville, I didn’t spray any water into the alternator so it could have some contamination. I also didn’t replace the belt since it didn’t appear that worn. I will spray the alternator down thoroughly with water and then air, and then try running it again. If the problem still exists, I...

    My first Chevy. Restored 85 4x4

    Nice seats, where did they originate? Nice truck too, looks like you don’t have too much to work on.

    Alternator?

    Daily driver water pump seized and it spewed coolant everywhere and smoked the belt some. After replacing it, it didn’t want to fire up and run properly but I figured I tripped a bunch of codes when I moved the car without the serpentine belt connected. I eventually got it to start and run...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Gauges look awesome! How did you clean the gauge faces?

    Wet sanding and polishing results (no more orange peel)

    Nice work, pics look good. That’s not an easy task for even the experienced bodyman and painter.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Worked out 5-6 dents with different spoons, levers, rods, body dollies and hammers. The one in the back corner of the bed took some effort from the rear tail light. Mostly worked on passenger side, welding some metal next.

    Hoes or Holes

    PO(s) made Swiss cheese in the box, which I plan to weld up. I get the 10 holes on the top rails of the box but I don’t get the the holes in the front corners. Ideas? I don’t want to fill the holes if they might serve a purpose down the road.

    C vs K 8 bolt rims

    Will a C rim fit on K model truck, not sure if the center hole diameter is different between 2 and 4 wheel drive? I’m considering buying four steel rims which I can run the dog dish caps.

    Firewall Plastic Shroud

    What is the purpose of the firewall plastic shroud? My k20 is the only time I’ve ever seen one. I’m gonna work on the AC evaporator but looks like I have to remove this first and it goes along the entire firewall with multiple parts to remove.
