What a nice built!
Thanks guys!
Don't make it too pretty to wheel with...it is looking good.
Thanks man!!
Yeah I didn't know about them either and had the parts on my shelf for about a year before I took my Jimmy apart and just decided to take a look to see if they would work.
They did so I was pretty excited about it.
But now that I'm going to run the Camaro manifolds and the cats it look like I might have to modify them just a bit to make it all work but I will show pics if I do.
Thanks again for the compliments!

Got the jimmy back from the paint shop yesterday!
It's all down hill from here "I hope!!"
Pics suck but it's a start.
The doors are still at the paint shop having the door locks shaved. I was not impressed by the way they looked and the clips make the locks cave in a bit and I was not having that.

always liked that dark grey
Me too!
Have owned 3 Chevy trucks that color
I picked the 99 gun metal grey for this one
It has more metal flake and a deeper appearance than the 86 grey it was originally.

I would have gone that color too if Home Depot had it in a gallon 
Looks bitchin man, love the color choice too.
Thanks guys!

Here is a little better pic of the top
We also did a color match on the interior panels and had the inside of the top sprayed
The original white always aggravated me. I always thought that they needed to do a little better than white plus once it got dirty it looked like crap.

Looking great!
Very nice, I like the smoothed roof, I did that to one I bought years ago and loved it.
The paint looks awesome.
Looks great! Can't wait to get mine painted some day.
Looks great! Friend of mine had an 87 half ton this color when I was in HS but unfortunately we rolled it one night screwin off on the back roads.
