I am really excited about finally owning and showing a Hill's Hot Rods Square Body!! This forum has been a great escape from homework and has given me inspiration for my project.

Cheese...Thanks for the welcome and compliments!!

I've seen the drop on this truck about 2 months ago at the shop and its insane. Its going to be awesome completed. :metal: Welcome to the site.

Im not sure what the paint code is or where the tonneau came from. Both were from the previous owner. The truck originally was gray with the maroon stripe down the side. I think the previous owner just repainted the entire truck in that same color of the stripe. The hood is an 8" glasstek.

West Texas Z - Thanks Man...It is probably completely different than when you saw it. Jason used my truck for a magazine article in Street Trucks to advertise a different brand of drop, but worked a deal with KP Components at SEMA for the current setup. Watch for another article in the near future. I am currently waiting for the brakes to come in and Jason and crew are working on the body mods. I moved to Houston in January, after graduating from Tech and I have not seen it since. I am looking forward to getting back to Lubbock to see the progress in person!!

Here is a pic of the KP Components front setup:

Nice trucks Broey! Where you at the severed in the southwest show? I think I saw both of those trucks there, i believe the white with the coys was being driven by a girl.

broey 02-19-2011 12:44 AM

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
 
Yeah the trucks were on display at the NotCal clothing booth. The white truck is Dinos, his daughter was driving it though.

85silverbeast 02-19-2011 01:06 AM

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
 
Yeah I remember both of the trucks are clean. Do you guys take the trucks out to a lot of shows? Ive seen a bunch of good looking squares around here.

Maybe we should take advantage of the pre-existing pavilions show and maybe plan a c-10 take over of a row or two one weekend coming up. It would be cool to get all years involved too. It would be a lot better than the row of bolt on corvettes.

Lets do it! Maybe the weekend of goodguys coming up in March? I think its March 12th and it will be big already since the show is their. I hope I will have my truck painted by then.
