Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

Here's my new truck. The guy I bought it from says it's a 71 but i'm starting to wonder since this site- http://www.pattson.com/maych/67_72_chevy.htm Shows the mirrors and the grille with no black stripe as a 72.

Dirty K5s RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :metal:

Hey Outlaw, is the rear view mirror glued to the windshield or screwed into the window frame?
72 was the first year GM started gluing the review to the windshield.

Of corse this is an easy mod to change..eaither way..run the vin to get the year right :mm:

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

what color is that '67?

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

heres my 68 GMC. i got stuck yesterday and almost couldn't get it out.

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

:haha: :haha: :haha: Shoulda listened to me in the first place ;)

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

yes, but i never woulda learned my lesson if this didn't happen and that lesson would be...a bigger truck is needed when there is deep mud...so i guess i need to make the truck bigger ;)

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

oh and that if at first you don't succeed try again ;)

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

That's what i'm wondering. The grille and the mirrors could have been changed but it's just funny that those are the only visual clues and they both say 72. She's at the shop getting road ready but i'll stop and see when I get a chance. I'll grab the VIN too. I think it's on the glove box.

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

The one you want is the metal plate on the drivers side door, it's riveted on and can't (isn't supposed to be) changed.

The glove box door 'could' have been changed, not likely but it a simple thing to do.

ok, you KNOW that last pic needs an explanation

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

I'll just say it's never a good idea to sit in the bar for 12 hours and then decide to go to the strip joint

I learned a big lesson that night

Heres some pics of the aftermath

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

A few hours with a porta power and a stud gun and slide hammer we had the cab straight enough to fit a door and windshield back in it, Its still gettin a cab this summer though

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

stupid stupid man dont drink and drive , youre kindah lucky you came out without fisical damage or wiping out someone else

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

That 60 is bad AZZZZZ! I love it. Don't sell!

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

Stupid,Stupid man is right:dohh:
Yeah, that was the big lesson I learned, I don't drink nearly as much now and I also walk....er stumble home now

Even if someone had the cash to buy it I dont think I could bring myself to sell it, I'd kick myself till the day I die

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

just be carefull you dont get hit on the way home either .
being drunk isnt as bad but it will be if it causes a second person to get hurt bij it , i heared numerous stories of peopel that got hit by drunk drivers on there way to there kids from work or things like that those people didnt had anything to do with the driver but get the short end anyway .
it this had happened to you threre woulldnt be a drink in the world to take away youre guild

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

Hello Everyone. I'm new to the boards. I just bought my first 70s Chevy Truck. Here it is below. And here is the link to the rest of the pics...

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

welcome to the board! nice truck, i like those mirrors(not being sarcastic) they look good on that truck

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

Thanks, I really think I'm going to enjoy the truck. Ive wanted one for about 8 years now and I finally just did it. I'm replacing my 07 Dodge with it.

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

wow that dodge is really sitting funny but nice truck.

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

Yea, the dodge has 12" of suspension travel and really soft national springs in the rear. Its a diesel so it can pull, but the suspension hates towing. Without a trailer it sits level with the front.

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

Nice truck 71gmchevy. I also like the West Coast Mirrors.

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

you might be able to put helperbags on top of the rearleafsprings , that way you can pull when needed and still ride in comfort when youre unloaded

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

he can put peterbuilt bags they would work great but he would need to put a place for the bags to mount on the top and bottom and nice humvee tires.

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

Here's just a couple pics of my 72 one the night i brought it in the garage and then I just got done a week ago sanding it down and fixing some rot and for now just spray painted it O.D. green. 33's and 6inch lift are on it now but a little more lift and 39.5 super swampers are in the works. It has a fresh 350 and 4speed.

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

Good ole trucks...... thanks for sharing.

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

just sold the dodge! no need for airbags anymore... thanks for the idea though...

HAH!!! My neighbor just told my girlfriend that he hates my truck and he feels like he lives in the bario now that i brought home that "treat".

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

hy did you sell the dodge and whats your plans for your 71. And my neighbors just tell my mom then i get mad and thought that i should see how loud my truck would get with open headers at midnight.

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
 

Sold the Dodge to get out of debt and bought a 00 suburban so I can put more into the 71. Hah, open headers at midnight. :lol: I called my neighbor out the other day when my other neigbor said he loved it. The neighbor that hates the truck was back pedaling.

As for the Chevy... 383 stroker, 700r4, Powdercoat/Rebuild dana 44/60, New steering joints, ujoints, axles, etc. Skyjacker suspension, bilstein shocks, powdercoat frame, body work, new interior, etc.

Stockpiling parts now.

If anyone has some ideas for suspension or brakes, I'm looking at blackbird's custom trucks for the brakes, anyone have them?

Re: How about some pics of your 4x4
