I thought you meant you won the auction! I checked and it's still going on, so there's a chance for me yet, I could win the lottery before it ends;>

I thought that was just a sharp truck until I clicked on the auction and read about it. And at first I thought it was a 6.2 diesel, but that must have been when it was new or something. I swear to God that truck is pretty near EXACTLY what I would build if I had the money! 502bb and a Gear Vendor? Sweet! Power everything, lifted, top to bottom front to back, that truck is darn near perfect. I only saw two things I didn't really like. One is those awful ugly towing mirrors, I hate when people put all kinds of holes in the sheetmetal like that, they always rust there, plus anything bumps the mirror and your door is all dented in. Not a real easy thing to fix either. Personally I love the look of the stainless Silverado style mirrors that everyone seems to pick on, calling them dumbo mirrors. Big enough to be useful but not ugly work-truck style. Why would somebody put ugly work-truck mirrors on a show truck?
Second thing I didn't like was the 4.56 gears, I guess I'd have to drive it and see if I liked it with the Gear Vendor. Everything I've ever driven with 4.56s, even with tall tires, just screamed at low highway speeds and emptied the fuel tank. I've always been happiest with 4.10s in my trucks.

post 3073 could be the prettiest crew cab i have ever seen. I love it, i even have an affinity for the towing mirrors. The 456 gears mean you can pull the rocky mountains to the east coast while the gear vendors mean you can afford to do it. Although with a 502 i am not sure it helps much lol. I absolutley love that truck. Not a fan of red but that one does it for me. I want to buy it, i will let you guess what the wife says.

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

Wow! I've actually thought about having to do that with mine, since my search for tall narrow tires is not going well. If I could find some big tires that will fit on my dually wheels, they would stick way out but I could change from a fleetside to a dually bed to cover them. I'd rather not though, because the tucked dually look was one of the main reasosn for getting the truck in the first place.

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

The black and silver truck in the first pic on post 3079 has made me change my mind yet again on a paint scheme. Last year iwas dead set it would be black and silver like that, recent months I've been planning on dark red over black, but now I've been swayed to silver again. If anyone is keeping score.
