I'm in NM. I am still learning how to use this as well. I use my fone for everything. Don't use this computer much at all. I am a truck driver

I think there were some server issues the day you joined....that may have caused the issue.
It appears to be corrected now...

It is built for a work truck, I do some construction and live out in the boonies so the truck is always hauling trees, wood and crap. 4WD helps pulling the wife out of the snow, which happens several times a year. All work was solo done in a 28 x 32 shop. Truck was pretty solid to start off with being from California. But I opted for no tirm as it would get trashed with the work I do. So 40+ holes to fill and most as big as the tip of your pinky was the bulk of the body work. The dually fenders had the standard crash and smash on the fronts and was repaired both out and inside for a strong fix. The 'sex machine' as my good buddy calls is is ready for action!

its a 4 inch lift and the tires are actually pretty small, their 285/75/16.

Bilfman, that truck is how i want mine someday! I love those blue interiors, it is clean looking. how where you able to find all the emblems for your truck? i cannot even find the dang 3+3 emblem as of yet.

bilfman 03-11-2012 07:05 AM

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs
 
I hit a local wrecker for a missing 3+3 emblem other then that it was all good.

Nice clean stock ride. Are you putting the side aluminum mouldings on or leaving it like that.

bilfman 03-11-2012 01:34 PM

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs
 
Mouldings are staying off, they will get trashed in this part of the country with how I use it.

Haven't brought it home yet but here is what I got today.
1977 3+3 silverado camper spec. 454/400 with 373s. Pretty decent truck, interior is mostly redone (seats, carpet, headliner), engine was rebuilt a couple years ago because of a top flight oil change shop forgetting to put on the oil pan plug (I have the receipt from them having to have the rebuild done).

I have the rear axle and front lift springs, waiting on the last of the suspension parts to do the SRW swap and lift all at once...

Here are the tires and wheels ready to go!
