Default Re: 2nd row change to Capt. Chairs?

We did the mod winter of 05, 06. Look for pics in the picture section. If you do not see it or they do not show up well let me know and will get Dragon to put some pics in this thread. We have been showing it in contest 06 and 07 blowing minds. You will not be able to get H2 seat or escalade as the salvage market has them sold before they get them on the lot. Best thing is to use captains from a Silverado truck as we did and when we had them covered by our sponsor from katzkins you could not tell the difference. Katzkins has most any mounting bracket to bolt down a non H2 seat into the H2 especially the rear seat position.

We also buillt a center console to go between the new rear captains and it flows to tie in with the front console. I could get Dragon to list all the mods, which would be very long, that we have done and if there are any questions on some you could ask. The rig between what Dragon and I have invested my H2 then Dragon's shop labor plus the more than half of cost by sponsors the rig has about $125,000 in it. We are going to do more this spring furnished by some new sponsors like Wildwood brakes as it looks good that they will go with us to be in their SEMA booth in Oct. 2008. We have a new paint offering from 2 sponsors that want to be on the rig so it will get it's 4th paint job including factory after first of year. In the end I cannot guess what the rig will have had invested in it by the time it is retired but, I do not see me getting rid of it.

I'm working with one of the best race car building shops in a large region to get them into making the transfer from auto tranny to standard 5 spd. with manual 2WD or 4WD select transfer case, It has been done I'm just looking at moving to market it on a larger scale to the H2 world. You would not have to worry about blowing trannies anymore. It will cost a whole lot less to do this conversion than doing a diesel conversion.

Check and see if pics are in the pic section. Should be some there. The guy we work with on interior mods is who told us about what heaters to use for front seat, well they would work on rear captains as well, instead of tryng to spend to much time cutting them out of H2 factory front seat covers.

Good Luck,

TAZ
