Rocket Man's 02 Denali Build Thread AKA "THE BEAST"

[Rocket Man]

Well I’ve been doing a lot of work on the Silverado but I haven’t forgotten The Beast. It looks like I’m gonna be laid off awhile, a lot of projects around here have been shut down. I already know I have to strip, paint and clear coat all the exterior handles and the front emblem because the damn U-Pol #1 failed miserably and spider webbed terribly. I’ve also been thinking about painting all the interior wood-grained plastic with the stuff I used on the window switch bezels on The Machine, Krylon Fusion Dark Metallic.
Stay tuned.

Bee poop and pollen are terrible here right now.

How many miles do you have on the LQ with the blower? Been wanting to see some updates on this thing.

Bee poop? Really? Can’t say I’ve ever seen bee poop and if I have I didn’t realize it lol

Coming up on 170k, it had 150 when I installed the Whipple. Only issue has been the one time I managed to grenade the Performabuilt 4l60 but it was rebuilt again under warranty.

If you get those squiggly yellowish things like those two that are on my door handle then you get bee poop. It’s kind of waxy and hard to get off. I get it bad all spring.

Thats good to hear especially that they rebuilt the 4l60.

Let’s hope Mark doesn’t run out of intricate, detail oriented projects on his vehicles or he could be doing stuff like this.....

Yeah, when you see them carrying little newspapers under one wing, you can tell they are about to go...
