Copper&Black's Complete Custom Build Thread

[BlizzardX23]

O_O ...is that a V-Rod 1250?

 

[Copper&Black]

Yes in deedy, 105th Anni Edition, Copper and black, 1250cc, 123hp, soon to be completely airride, and able to drop it on the frame to park her…

Over Kill….who said over kill, no such thing…..and yes the block is getting a blend job to get rid of the majority of the casting marks and painted copper, along with the super charger, intake manifold, and valve covers, polished full rails to top it off nicely...

New to posting on this site, I was a regular on the Tahoeforum.com until other projects and home improvements took up all my time and I faded away.

For those of you who don't know me, I have a 02 Yukon, Completely shaved (door handles, rear hatch handle, and even the rear push button has been replaced with a solinoid) Rear view camera were the push button was, Welded in roll pan, hidden hitch, Swaping in Black Escalade seats, black carpet, Suede headliner, and I have 6 Jet black leather cow hides to cover every plastic piece I can in the truck. DVD changer in the glove along with the Alpine nav NVE-N852 with a custom painted face. Alpine monitors in the front center console (TME-M740BT), rear center console (TME-M740BT to match the front), and overhead console in the front (TMX-R705, fully motorized 7" screeen). Polished stainless steel buttons for all the doors, and the center console to open everything. ..

No more writing, I’ll post some pics I have. This should probably be moved over to general discussion after this…haha

that console in the back is the shit. I so know what im doing to the silverado next. A simple 6.5 inch montior in the center console with a double din GPS HU up front.

nice detail on the engine...this thing will never see DD use again once your done lol...you gonna trailer it to car shows? heh..

The bike is bad ass too...I ask because Im looking for a Night Rod Special...1250cc, the 240mm, and Im lookin to drop it about an inch or so...trying to find a good deal...but nothing yet =/

 

[Copper&Black]

Trailer nothing, Daily driver haha, I'm throwing in a built 4L80E to make sure she lasts...
Nice, I like the Night Rod, I'm throwing a 260 on as soon as this tire goes.

The console is not nearly finished, the rear monitor is going to face at a more upward angle, and those heated seat switch holes will be covered up. I was originally going to use then as outlet holes for the huge power inverter that is going in and providing power to the front, rear and cargo. But the 110 power that close to a monitor is sure to have problems...

I'm in Miami, I didn't mention that before

 

[BlizzardX23]

260?.... nice idea...will you have to change the rim? Also, hows the power? and hows ride comfort? (vibrations/shaking)


You might now have people in the mid seats often...but I know when I DO have people back there and its cold, they appreciate the seat warmers...are you going to relocate everything from the rear console section so other occupants still have control?



by the way, thanks for clearing that up...the fact that it will see city streets other then for showing it off...I cant understand why people turn their DD into a show car...then never drive it again...I think thats so dumb lol...

copper's been around for long minute. He was on TF, I was hoping he made it over, and this post confirms it for me. Glad to see the trucks coming along.

 

[rockymt21]

Im looking forward to seeing how the leather wrapped plastics turn out, don't think I have seen that yet.

 

[Rollin Thunder]

im looking forward to seeing the truck done, then him taking my check. lol

 

[Copper&Black]

That is an Escalade console, and the rear heated seat buttons were from the escalade rear seats. The only other controls on the rear console is the rear audio controls which has no use with the aftermarket system.

Thunder: that would have to be a very large check
