What do you think...
 

These are just some pics of a friends truck that some friends and I built a couple of years ago. I think it turned out good for a backyard project. What do you guys think?

Clean I like it.

Re: What do you think...
 

I really dig it. I'll be running the same rims and I wish same tire combo on my 81.

Re: What do you think...
 

what drop is that?

Re: What do you think...
 

THats nice what color is that?;)

Re: What do you think...
 

Nice! Love the color and wheels, but I just noticed that you forgot to put the mirrors back on :lol:

Re: What do you think...
 

very nice, what is the drop and tire size?

Re: What do you think...
 

looks clean. I`d like to know about the drop and wheel/tire specs.

Re: What do you think...
 

I don't remember the name of the color but the code is K7 (Dupont). We got it off of a fox body mustang, 1991-92 I believe.

Re: What do you think...
 

The drop is a 3" drop spindles in the front and flip kit in the rear with a leaf spring removed.

Tire/Wheel combo are 8.5 car rallye in the front w/ 275-50-15 BFG
15x10 in the rear with 295-50-15 BFG
3" corvette stainless trim rings and camaro caps

Engine/Trans 350cid .040 over with 327 camel hump heads ported
TH350 Trans with B and M shift kit
10 bolt rear stock 3.08 gears

Re: What do you think...
 

Very nice!! I think the Vette wheels look great with the color and stance. :metal:

Re: What do you think...
 

The doors were LMC doors and were hard as hell to fit. He decided not to put the mirrors on it. It's hard to drive to me at night but it doesn't bother him at all.

Re: What do you think...
 

That is nice, awesome work!

Re: What do you think...
 

these truck's just look right with rallies and white letter t/a's.

Re: What do you think...
 

I wish my truck looked half as nice as that one. Good job! The only thing I would change, if it were mine, is to put a '73-'79 front end on it.

I'm diggin' the vette rallies and white letters too. Nice combo especially with the 10" rears.

Re: What do you think...
 

Medium azure blue perhaps? Ford in the late 80's - early 90's?
I would put on a set of sport mirrors myself, those big flat doors need just a little chrome. But man it looks nice.

Beautiful truck.

Re: What do you think...
 

yeah that is definitly a nice truck.. i love the classic look on these trucks.. really any look if well exicuted looks good but it just looks clean to me..

Re: What do you think...
 

very nice!

Re: What do you think...
 

Do you know if your friend had any clearance issues with 3" spindles and 15 inch rims? I'm really loving this truck!

Re: What do you think...
 

The only problem we had was installing the wheels when we got the suspension together. We had to remove some material from the top of the calipers. We didn't remove much, but that was the clearance issue.

Re: What do you think...
 

Thanks for all the compliments guys. I installed the engine, trans, exhaust and some of the suspension. We took the truck to another freinds house to do the body work and paint. The body was rough. Believe it or not it was truely a backyard project. The body work and painting was done in the driveway with a makeshift booth we made from a popup tent/carport from pepboys. It was a lot of fun and alot of hard hours. But hell, what are freinds for!

Re: What do you think...
 

I think you may be right on the color D13. It was either medium azure blue or medium lupus blue. We all work at a local FORD dealership. He saw the color, got the code and that was that.

Re: What do you think...
 

What did the car ralley wheels come on with a 5x5 bolt pattern? I thought all the car ralley wheels were 5x4.75.

Re: What do you think...
 

I love it. The wheel/tire/stance combo is PERFECT! Nice Job!!

Re: What do you think...
 

That truck is hot
I absolutely love the color
stance is a bout perfect
only thing I'd do and maybe it's just the picture

the body side molding sorry to be negative

I tape a piece of sting tightly to the body anchored in front and
back and apply the molding along that straight line

but to be sure wouldn't kick it out of the garage over it

sweet ride
