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

I got the first grill and both core supports from a salvage yard in Grahm, Tx. the second grill was quite an ordeal, I wait'd 6 months for a new one. I finaly bought a used grill from a fellow board member and when the new grill did arive I had my girl friend put it away till I repaint the red truck.

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

two things i cant seem to find them in the yards and the last thing is i love thet color sceme wish i could find your trucks double round here for a resonable price

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

same with me, I could'nt find em round home (Tenn), my girl freind has family in Texas so when we go to visit I always hit the salvage yard around there.
I've bought 3 of the grill/core support combo's from the same yard so far, the last two had Chevy grill's .
as far as the color sceme on my red truck , seems like you, me and GMTGMT are the only ones that like it, every one else says it looks to dated.

i might be 19 but im old school lol

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

they used to be almost impossible to find around here as well.....but I've been on a spree lately and now own 5 of them...lol. Also have 3 short box fleetsides as well. Been a good run this summer..hahaaha.

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

lol yea i i guess ive been on the 73-74 run cause im up to 2 chevys and 3 gmc's so i guess i keep hitting the yards

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

I love the paint job on the red truck, wouldnt change a thing about it IMO except for the name on the title if I had the $$$ :D

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

thanks, but you'd have to have quite a few $$$. I got a good deal when I bought it but the next owner wont !
my girl friend said I was nuts to put $4500 worth of tires and wheel's on a $1500 truck, I told her a new one would cost around $50,000 so with what I've spent so far I got $40,000 left to spend on it !

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

lol some are more than that lol

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

NO payments on the old square either mine is on the pay as you play plan

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

That's how all of mine are. :lol: But I'm really still wanting a 05ish F-350 crew cab so sometime later I may venture in the payments again. But not if I can help it.

I got sick of the red paint, thought this suited it a little better. Still have to paint my hood, interior and inside the box..
I don't have to do rust repair before paint if it's "rust inhibiting" paint right? :lol:

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

it looks good, let me know if the rust inhibitor paint fix's the rust. I'll paint all mine that color !

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

MrPops, looking good!

the green looks sweet been thinkin of doin that to my CC and shine up all the chrome trim

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

Thanks for the compliments guys. This is the paint I used, the color is "olive drab" and the color swatch was filed under "classic military vehicle" at the paint store.

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

Endura also has a mix as well with a few different shade choices. This is one of them with some "modifications" to the formula. Decent stuff to spray as well.....

Not a crew cab but the paint that I used on my last project is the point....

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

Cool. is that a semi gloss?

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

ya, flat as I could get it with the percentages that they allow. But it is very picky how you spray, temperature etc. Lighter coats and a faster dry time would have been optimal, just not how things worked out. But love the paint though....easy to clean and maintain.

I have said this before but I love this thread
