i'm sure there are some board members in Kansas or Missouri that would be glad to "school" you on the finer points
once you get low, there is no going back, it is a sickness:devil:

My cure for that illness is called "resale value"!

:lol:Ha ha ha, so true!:lol:

I really like the 4wd trucks, someday I will restore something to stock, I'm just not ready to do it yet. I'm going to wait until my knees give and I can't step down into a truck anymore.:metal:

that is one way of looking at it,
i don't look at it that way, when i'm putting my blood sweat and tears into something, i'm not thinking what i will be able to get out of it.
adding dropped coils or spindles doesn't alter the vehicle, you can always go back to stock. completely bolt on.
that is like saying you adding later model wheels ruins the truck. Attachment 402575

Tony, I look at photos of your trucks to see if I have everything right on mine! Is one of yours by chance on ebay? I saw a red one that is near Kansas City listed the other night. I swore I took two of the globe shaped horns off mine when I tore it down, but didn't have a photo of the mounting for the second. I can now say after seeing the photos on ebay that I was right (even though many told me it wasn't so). I now know where that second horn mounts!!

Keep the photos coming guys!

Thanks, but I can't take a lot of credit. I bought it like this in 1994, and other than some mechanical upgrades, I just left it alone. I have put over 60,000 miles on it since I bought it.

I saw this truck at a car show at the Cullman, AL airport a few years ago. It is spectacular, for sure. I heard that it has since changed hands.

Not for mine, but here is a pic from 6066gmcguy.org. This is what mine originally looked liked, Just imagine the light green on the wheels for the upper body..

I would call our panel truck.. completely unrestored stock:

Was originally white.. then painted green with astroturf 'hair' sometime in the 70s and then with its last owner can-o-flaged by he and his sons.. they are Mopar fans.. so they didn't care if he was ugly. However, they were impressed that they couldn't kill it.
