but it looks like a solid starting point for a great truck


it's for the old wheel lift it had. i'm going to cut it all out and clean up under there.

thats the best one i have right now... if the rain stops i'll sneek out and get another. lmao it use to have a wrecker on it. so between the weight of it and the vehicle being towed i'm assuming is why it has so many...?

Not an original crew cab, but I wanted more seating when replacing my increasingly beat up cab... so I swapped one on. 1982 models

unfortunately i sold this one years ago but i loved that old truck....i shaved the raingutters, used late mirrors, late top running lights. Truck had a 15"x15" Weld single rear wheel with a MT fattie on the back. Truck had a plate that said LOWR IT....

That looks like early 90's? I really miss some of the trends from that time. Looks like a really nice truck.

thanks, i designed/laid out the graphics to black out the window area....and yes the phantom dually thing was in full swing back then....i think it was mid 90's. Truck had a grey 91 sub interior and was comfy as hell. Nowadays i want to do a shortbed 91 crewcab and convert it to 1/2 ton/5 lug, but if were dreamin' a duramax would be killer in one.

Just picked up the black truck a couple of weeks ago to mess around with. Pictures of it had been posted above by the previous owner.

Also, anyone know where I might be able to lay my hands on an air dam like the one on the white truck? Thanks!

Thank you sir! I guess Tom Kristiensen wasn't the only good thing to come out of Denmark! ha ha.

I really like the look of them myself. Has a nice "period correct" look. Thanks!

I like the layed out blue one, but i absolutely love the short black one!

I will say that on any other square body it may be super ugly, but i think the prostreet theme really works on it. I cannot say that i would like it at all without the fatties on the back.

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs
 
I don't know, I really don't like the black. I don't know why, but the two tone looks bad too. What's different with it? Maybe it's the color?
