I don't know why, but I like the idea of creating my own "Infidel Edition K5"

Here's the plan as I stand today. I bought a pair and a half of 71 K5's.
1 has a nice suspension (stock but 0 rust issues)
... and nice glass.
1 has a great tub and dual walled top.

Since the guy wouldn't just sell the parts I wanted, I ended up with 3 full sets of doors, fenders, hoods, suspensions, ... a lot of goodies!

I'm going to mix and match to get a solid foundation of a beast and then go bed liner from firewall to tail gate (inside and underside).

Although both have 350's with trans and etc. I'm going to put a '95 police interceptor edition 350 w/ 4speed + od trans in it.

Then sand out any rough spots and paint Sand (OD HumVee paint) as it is great at hiding scuffs and dings ~ not to mention durable as ^*&(^&

Though, I'm hoping to sell off some of the extras to finance some of the work. But with all the extra parts, I'm sure I'll make out like a bandit in the end.
As I trim down the pic's, I'll post the process as I go.

 

sounds fun we love pictures

 

Love it! cant wait to see what ya come up with!

 

Sounds like a good project, can't wait to see pics!

 

The tub on the black one is rusted to crap and the top leaks like ... well, like not having a top at all.
The orange one has a great tub and top. But I want to go topless / half bra so the top doesn't matter.

 

omg i love that lifted one

More pics of that one please =P

 

If you mean the lifted 75 (I think that's the year), it's not mine.
The parts I found just happened to be next to it.
... but it is an awesome looking ride.

 

Sounds awesome can't wait to see how it turns out.

 

As far as the under-coat
... as well as the trim line down.
I was thinking of using the same spray-on bed liner.

Any thoughts on undercoating?
... or rock guard for the lower body?

~ is bedliner a good thought...
