Attention club members who make Avalanche Parts

Matts_U.A.V. · Sep 29, 2003

Hello,

I hate writing Subjects. I never know what to say. Anyways, I am building an Avalanche for SEMA for a Wheel Manufacturer. I am lifting it at the moment and having cladding painted. They asked me to think of any other accessories to ad and let them know.

I know alot of you make or know people who make parts. I just dont have the time to search and ask.If you do and are interested in possibly having it put on this truck. Please get back to me ASAP.

A couple of issues.

1. It is a 2004 1500.
2. Products can not break trademark or copyright laws.
3. A business certificate is not mandatory.
Please email me at

wsthffmatt@aol.com or usarockbottom@yahoo.com . A picture would be great or at least a good description and contact information so I may show them.

Minor mod to subject line - SHC

I think amd1900mp's products would be a perfect contender for a spot on your SEMA Av

Matts_U.A.V. · Sep 30, 2003

Thanks GreayAv

Also I forgot to mention. They are going for what they called a "Stealth" look. A lot of Black. And I dont belive I mentioned its a 4x4.
Thanks for the replys. Please keep them coming.

Matt,

Need to get rid of the chrome on the grill, gives it a stealthier look.... check out my pics >:D

Grey

ok shutting up now :6:

Stealth huh? Sounds like you need a Stealth Off-Road Bumper. And a free one to me for the suggestion!

Very interested to see your results on this one!

This is not a part that some one here makes but the Stylin Concept Roll Pan Exhaust tips would look sweet on this project truck

I also sent you an email, although I don't think my parts will arrive before SEMA...

Fingers Crossed.

I think one of TXAvy's custom bed racks w/ a big ole cargo basket (like Yakima's Mega-Warrior) mounted to it would look tough and be very functional for off-road. Ooops, no name-brand (Yakima) allowed? Perhaps a custom-fabricated one for mounting a spare tire, gas can, tow stuff, or whatever?

Took the words right out of my mouth. That would look awesome

Another Idea made in CA is AV Ling's knobs for the AC and headlight - they look sweet - not sure how much people will be able to see in your cab.

How about a Swing "N Load ? If it would fit into your theme I would be honored!

You are very welcome Matt.

We are all very interested in seeing the Avalanche you guys come up with.

Peace!
Todd

P.S.

Matts_U.A.V. · Oct 1, 2003

They would KILL me if I did that now :8:

, but be assure when its done I will.

pktwatch · Oct 9, 2003

Any update as to what products you may use on your SEMA project?

Butch

amd1900mp · Oct 24, 2003

Its been a couple weeks has anything progressed from this?

Wanting to be updated..

Todd

Prince_FuFu · Oct 24, 2003

Sail Panel Windows would surely add to the stealth look.
Custom Bowtie from Carriles
Pinted powerbar and grill
window-tint all around
Magna Charger Radix

O.K., I'm really building my ultimate Superman AV
Clark Kent on the outside, man of steel on the inside.
>:D

Is that a WBH or is the cladding painted, I can't tell from the little pic. Is that a stock color?

:B:

Les

OK I see it now www.offwest.com shows it as painted cladding.
I am still not sure if that is a stock color?

amd1900mp · Nov 15, 2003

What ever became of this project?

Peace,
Todd

Open the image with Microsoft Paint. Choose Image -> Stretch/Skew. Then shrink the picture until it's 500 pixels wide or less. I think you can see pixel size in the properties.

I had a thought....

So Cal member MattsU.A.V. said he was building an AV for sema... it was a black 04 lifted.... stealthy look... and would be in the american racing wheel booth at SEMA...

Hmmmmm this is Matts U.A.V.'s new AV
