What do you think that bumper is off of..It seems much shorter then the stock bumpers...I would love that in chrome.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Stepsides
 

Yeah I like that bumper!

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Stepsides
 

thanks guys, its a front bmper that i sectioned about 8-9" out of on each side. it was a pain t get it to look straight. i wasnt able to start with a straight bumper. i think it would look great with a 73-80 blazer/burb bumper

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Stepsides
 

Figures...It couldn't be something easy.

Are 73-80 burb or blazer rear bumpers shorter then the stock stepsides?? I would like to see them side by side.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Stepsides
 

blazer ang suburban bumper just have recessed license plate pockets

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Stepsides
 

I've wanted to make one of those for a while only with a rear bumper so it would have the cutout for the plate. Looks cool ! Kind of a shame the 73-87 steppers never got a rear bumper that matched the front, just a carry over from the 67-72 years. I think gm did the same thing with stepside rear fenders in the 60s too, body lines didn't even match.

Nice looking truck Evan! What kind of #'s are you throwing from that beast?

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Stepsides
 

I Have never ran it at the track , I just did a painless kit in the truck and got all lights ect working , finished the ignition up about 2 weeks ago and have only put about 100k on it since just crusing around letting everything work in , I would image mid to high 12's low 13's without the NOS and maybe mid 11's with it ? never weighed the truck

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Stepsides
 

Right on! How heavy of a shot of nitrous? - Also, I just noticed - where in BC are you?

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Stepsides
 

I will be spraying a 125 shot for now untill I cage it , cant run 11.49 without one at mission raceway and will go more nos next year or a blower , I live between chilliwack and abbotsford and plan on streeting it alot . I am more than capable of bending and have cert to weld cage so its gonna be a fancey one :metal:

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Stepsides
 

Down in the sumas flats there are miles of quiet quiet farm roads for "testing" the truck out :metal:
