Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

no i wish thats a friend of mines. has a fuel injected 454 in it. its about to get tore appart to get restored.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Here's my '83 K10 shortbox 4x4 I picked up a couple of weeks ago. It's got a 350/700R4, color matched ralleys, warn lock outs, wrapped in 31.5 BFG's with a slight lift. I got it for a hunting rig, but been driving it everyday since I bought it. It rides like a dang truck, but hey, it's not my accord either! The Honda is sitting in the garage while I'm riding high in my K10 during these North Dakota winters! It's yellow, has some rust but the body is pretty straight for a 30 year old truck. It's not perfect I don't care, it's a tank and it's unique where I live!

In the last week I did the following:

New valve cover rubber gaskets, new transmission filter kit, new tranny fluid, new plugs, new vacuum advance, tightened distributor cap (it was hand loose), adjusted carb, fixed timing, had shop install new 2 1/2 dual exhaust with magnaflow glasspacks and 4" stainless steal tips, new manifold gaskets and donuts, took off running boards and clear old school square style bug shield....

In the near future I plan on...

Purchasing a bull bar with KC lights, taking off Leer Mach topper (I'm going to try and sell it) and installing triple chrome roll bars with KC lights, chrome step up bars, chrome grab bars, tinting windows, chrome fender flares, chrome rocker panels, mud flaps, smoked head light covers, smoked vent window shades, smoked bug shield, any one have these parts for sale???

Should I replaced the factory painted rallys for some other rims? I would need some 15" to fit my new BFG KO's.

Thanks for looking.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

yes it is home now . I will be looking into tearing some of it down today .:chevy:

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Here's mine. It's a 72 Stepside 4 x 4 that I bought new in 1972. It has a 4" lift. I restored it some time back and it has a new crate engine and the transmission and transfer case have been rebuilt.

Will never sell! I will be buried in my truck!

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

You 67-72 chevy/gmc 4x4 guys are definately cool!!!

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Not as cool as the 60-66 crew, but you guys run a tight second :D

/flee!

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

I can't lie 60-66 are my all time favorite trucks. I use to have a 64 chevy fleetside shorty. That was the truck that started my sickness for 1972 and older chev/gmc pickups! I even got ink of the 64 on my shoulder.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

My sickness is 67-72 GM/Chevy's can't seem to help myself, I have had 5 two wheel drives and 2 4wd's and owned both 4x4's trice each, so Momma said to buy this 71 Big block one back and keep it and buy some other project, so of course I did, I b ought a 64 Fairlane,(for the kid's,hehe), should listen to the wife you know. So keeping this 71 4x4 for good now.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Here's a 71 for ya with big ol' puppy squashers on 'er. Fueling the passion :)

Re: post your 67-72 4x4

Re: post your 67-72 4x4

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Not lettin my puppy out when Fetchmeapepsi is around.:lol:

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Ok, here's my new to me '69. Currently its getting front and rear axles from a '72 which will give it power disc brakes and 3.08 gears (I think). Getting the TH350 and NP205 from the '72, the 3 on the column is getting retired. Getting a tilt steering column from the '72. Already had a 350ci in it. Gonna wait about a year then next years project will be a motor rebuild or crate. Probably gonna put the 33 x 12.5 x 15's from '72 on it as well.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

What kind of lift you have on her? gears?

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

FetchMeAPepsi-

That is one beautiful truck you have there! I would be interested in knowing the lift you have on it also. And what size tires are those?

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Here are the before and during pics. The finish line is coming soon.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

What, where is the nice rubber fender flares, they are probably rare, no just kidding, the paint is sooo nice compared to before, glad the blck stripe is gone. Is it a factory color, had a 3/4 ton 71 orange too not as pretty though.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Nice, you need a build thread wrwelton!

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Yes this is a factory color. It was my Dads truck and he gave it to me when i was 16. I am now 48. Long time coming. Thanks

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Hey 68Maniac what lift and tire size on the Beast, I know it looks a bit higher in front due to no motor but it sits so nice, going to be bad a$$.:sumo:

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Thanks guys for the replys! Lift consist of Sky's 4 1/2" perch drop, 73-87 8" soft ride springs Rear has 8" soft rides with a shackle flip. It has a 8.1l vortec/4l80e and np 205 in the truck as you see in the pic's. Springs sagged a little some when I installed the 8.1. I work in the oilfield and stay gone from home quite a bit so it has been a very slowwww build.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4

Re: post your 67-72 4x4

Re: post your 67-72 4x4

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

My old 72 burb! Factory BB, a/c front/rear, tilt, tach, was an original 2wd and I swapped to a 4wd frame. First pic is with 3/4 tons, 12" springs, 3" body lift with 42" super swampers. The truck drove really nice!! 2nd pic is with 2-1/2 ton rockwells, with 6.38'a, lockers front and rear and 44" boggers. This thing was a blast in the river!! I should have some better pics somewhere

Re: post your 67-72 4x4

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Nice step side!

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

nice color step-side DavTay

Was it an original straight 6 with 3 on the column?

So what are your plans for it?

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Not the original color, not sure what color this is?
Originally olive green, might paint it white. or green w/white roof.
It was an original 307, 3 on the tree.
It has a mercruiser 350 in it now with a SM465 tranny.
Yes, actually a re-manufacturer mercruiser boat motor.
The block is from the 1998 so I don't think it has that many miles on it.

I think I'm going to repair the rust and make it a daily.
I want to remove the home made bumpers and install some used bumpers.

The toolbox was made by a boat mfg. actually has a live well in it, how crazy it that?

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Its an interesting color because it seems to be the same as mine. A better pic of mine is one page sooner. I keep getting asked what the name of the color is and i just them the "UK Blue", which works pretty well here in kentucky. I did not paint it, I bought it that way.

I do like the white roofs and would love to see a short step-side painted that way. Please post a pic if you do go with that paint scheme

What do you know, a step-side with a live well and a mercruiser. Are you sure it won't float?
