I have been coming to this site for years and never posted, so here it goes. I live in BC, i'm 27, own an Auto Body shop. I have owned about 40 square bodies in 11 years, some for parts some drivers, trucks big and small, blazers, suburbans, I just cant get enough of them. I have three right now (well drivale) The blue one is an 83 c-10 shorty, 4.5-6" drop, injected 350, 700r4, full load, a/c(works), power rear window. The blazer is a 73, 2" drop, 350-turbo 350, custom interior. The 4x4 is an 85 shortbox, 4" lift 33's,corvette 327 suburban interior(my first truck, owned it since 1999) I look forward to posting alot!

Re: Not so newbies first!
On the Blazer....
Sweet, Do you have any worries of the boat carpet getting wet and causing the bed to rust ? Or did you lay some type sealer/bed liner down first ? |
Re: Not so newbies first!

Re: Not so newbies first!
Well it's about time you started posting. Thanks for "finally" sharing..;)

Re: Not so newbies first!
The boat carpet sheds the water very well, as for being worried about rust it was rusty when I got it, it is in the shop as we speak. I`ll get more pics of it in the shop.

Picked up a new member on the fleet, I have been bugging a guy I know for 2 years to sell it to me. He finally caved, I didn't know it was coming with the camper but anyways here it is. I'm the third owner, has never been owned out side town, 88 2wd, all orginal, never had anything painted, full load, injected 454, 4 speed, a/c blows cold, very little rust, 202,000km, paid $2800 (canadian) for the whole package, needless to say I happy with that.

Re: Not so newbies first!
Welcome... good looking rigs.
|
Re: Not so newbies first!
welcome.......cool looking trucks.
|
Re: Not so newbies first!
Sweet looking trucks, how did you do the power rear window?
|
Re: Not so newbies first!
The rear window was made by CR Laurence and they have been avalible for at least 15years. It is one of the best aftermarket pieces I have ever had in any truck. I wish they still made them, I would put one in all my trucks.
|
Re: Not so newbies first!
OH i like that lifted 85 :) Sweet trucks
|
Re: Not so newbies first!
nice...i like the 85 grille.big improov.in my opinion.
|
Re: Not so newbies first!
Welcome! Cool looking rides you got there.
|
Re: Not so newbies first!
I like the blazer,... but your '83 is my favorite.
Everything you have done to it,... has made it better. Also,... COOL back window! |
Re: Not so newbies first!
Very cool trucks!
That crew/camper combo looks like a lot of fun! Posted via Mobile Device |
Re: Not so newbies first!
Thanks guys, it's nice to share with people that like these trucks as much as I do, there isn't to many people around town that care to talk about old trucks.

Re: Not so newbies first!

Re: Not so newbies first!
Ya that would be me, my uncle still has that 49 chev
|
Re: Not so newbies first!
that's a sweet truck, cool to see the current fleet, I had an old blazer back then I bought some 38's off you and regrooved them, and some odds and ends for the drivetrain, love the look of the shorty's lifted or dropped, any pics of his 49?
|
Re: Not so newbies first!
welcome. great looking trucks, even with the rusty one haha. I am very envious that your only 27 and have your own shop with enough space to actually work on your own projects. Now if you tell me you can afford to pay someone to work on it for you then wow.
