Hey Peoples, It's been a while but i have some update pics for ya. I replaced the front end with a 3/4 ton DANA 44 but some air head switched the 8 lug hubs for 6 :sumo: . But now its packing 7 1/2 inches more of ride hight then when i bought it 454 turbo 400 tranny. I am currently in the process of putting a doubler np203/ DANA 20 tranfercase 4:56 gears. I think it will be just sick in 4 low and doubled down:metal: so let me know what you think and I love this site :metal::metal::metal::metal::metal:

I thought this was supposed to be a thread for PICTURES of CREW CABS. Not a build thread.
Isn't there a seperate sub forum for that?

88, is that the same truck? if so, God bless ya for raising it up off the ground and making it into a truck again!

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs
 

"simulates" a chrome wheel. I believe this is where the name came from.

Anybody know where to get that crewcab model kit?

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs
 

Apparently it's "handmade" from another kit.

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs
 

Its a custom done Rc starts life with a tamiya high lux kit, pick up two clod buster chevy bodys, little cuttin some glue thats what you end up with, the dually finders are a custom made piece shape a piece of wood and make a fiberglass mold, I'm building one myself

Yes sir it is the same truck. And I'm having a blast, far from done though. I'm in the process of undercoating the whole body and there will be I 1 foot strip of massy ferg red downd the side. I hope it looks as good in person as it does in my head ! :metal:

I just had to say man I love that mismatched paint job. On a real truck it would irritate me until it was painted to match, but for that replica, it is just so perfectly authentic! Way cool.

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs
 

I saw the Fast and Furious truck this past week in Branson MO. Best part of the whole trip! It was sitting at a mechanic shop getting all the lights hooked up and gauges working to be street legal. You could buy it for 80k if you wanted. Just thought id share

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs
 

That's cool!!
what engine and trans does it have in it?

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs
 

wonder how they arrived at $80k? I mean it isn't the General Lee or the Batmobile. I don't get the singles on the back. Anything they gained with a second axle they lost by using those tires instead of duals. I have a friend with a reg cab GMC that he made into a 10 wheeler, looks way better than that.
Sorry, I just don't get that truck. And those have to be the most ineffective towing mirrors I've seen. Wasn't that truck supposed to be driven backwards?

Who here couldn't build a lot better truck with $80 grand?

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs
 

X2

They want 80k because it was in a movie. Anybody have any pictures of the suspension or the power plant? Clearly the interior doesn't add to the 80k price tag!

If it has some money under the hood and a really off the wall air ride suspension then maybe 15k

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs
 

A 572 is a 15k powerplant. Must have a pretty decent gearbox to handle the horsepower, some money was spent on the rear suspension. I would say maybe 35k!

Do we even know if this is the truck where both rear axles are drive axles. The video said they built 3 of these and one had both rear axles actually driven.

I'm willing to bet for 80k it's the one that drives both.

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs
 

Honestly i was too excited to see the truck i didnt even think about popping the hood until after i left. I did look under the back of it and it appeared to be driving both rear axles. It had two parallel four links with panhard bars. I noticed the N.O.S tanks were dummies. The back frame looked exactly like the movie that was posted and the rear axle had a finned rear cover.
