From the album: VHO Work in Progress
Grille, gotta get that grille! Billet Aluminum Black Powder Coated. Oh yeah, gotta color match the chrome bar, or black? I don't know! ...and paint the brake ducts! I'm thinking Satin Black ilo Silver, with fog lights. -

Tail & 3rd Brake Light. Gonna tint the lenses this summer. Also, new OEM Escalade Color Matched/Chrome Door & Gate Handles. NOTE: I got hit in the left rear corner of the bed and bumper this winter (see pics below). It also damaged the LED tail-light. So, I've gotta decide on which ones to replace them with. I like the smoked ones. Any suggestions with pics are appreciated! -

This was the first pic I took of her. I only owned it about an hour. Proud papa!!! -
Hey Man! Question: what process did you use on your black wheels? Paint, powder coat, plast-dip? Thanks! -
EEEEEK!!! Is there only four VHO guys out there that want a high quality custom Bowtie? I know these trucks are getting old, but damn, I still want to trick mine out! I mean, it's all I could afford to spend on a truck right now. This way I have money to do some things to it. I cant leave anything stock! What a great platform to start with! A rare HP Silverado! Am I missing something out there guys?

I believe Shopman would! You're the first I've heard of someone having an issue with one! Could've been a early version or something? If we get 10 orders and can get them into production, I'll stand behind it! I'm pretty picky, so I want a nice piece for my grille too. That's why I bugged the hell out of him (Shopman) to commit to making them. With you ordering one, that puts us to 4 confirmed, we'll need 6 more. I will be on vacation next week. If we have enough serious orders by the time I'm back (March 9th) we will get the ordering process going! If there's not enough by then, we will cancel the orders. Thanks!

Hey Guys/ Gals! Any interest out there in purchasing a Shopman1 VHO Bowtie? I talked to him a while back and if there was still enough interest, he would possibly make a run of them. They look like the SS versions he's made. Just Google images to see them. They are built from high polished aircraft aluminum & would have hardware. These are replacements of the factory plastic junk, not overlays, very high quality and VERY RARE! I know we would need at least ten orders. All of this does come at a bit of a price, but considering the quality and craftsmanship, its a very fair price! The cost is just under $120ea. If there is enough serious interest, more details will follow. I think it's safe to say, this will be the last chance ever to purchase one! Let me know, Thanks!

I noticed it looks like you have a Street Scenes bumper cover? I like the billet grille you've got! What brand is the grille? That's the type I want, in the black powder coated version. I recently bought the Street Scenes bumper cover, but was told that the brake ducts were larger on the Street Scene version so the grilles made for the factory SS wouldn't fit. I'm not sure about the center opening?. Your's looks awesome with a very nice fit! Can you help me out? Thanks! -

I really like your motor paint scheme! I've never seen it done that way. Very nice! -

LOL! I could only afford one truck at a time and my 454 was a 1990. They had the old 3-speed Turbo 400 tranny and a 3:73 rear gear. It just wasn't a practical daily driver, especially on the highway, not to mention 10 mpg. I liked it but my VHO works well for me. -
Very Nice...Alot of what you've done is in my plans and ideas for mine! Great taste!!!
