WOW, looks killer! OK, now it's time to fess up! What size wheels, tires, backspacing, drop, etc...... I've been secretly waiting for this post to ask this questions(s)....

Also, where did you and Asa get those brake covers that are behind the wheels?

I'm going to install a wood bed in mine, as well as Chuckles, and Asa is thinking about a c-notch and maybe a whole new front end but I'll let him describe that one!!

Peek a boo!

glock35ipsc · 09-17-2007, 04:27 PM

Awesome! Hey 71see10 - I just happen to notice a pic of your truck in the August issue of Truck Builder!

Jcentsr6 · 09-17-2007, 04:29 PM

nice....my likey. Good pics too. I love the country

timzrides · 09-17-2007, 04:41 PM

WOW!!!, nice trucks, love that green color, are they all stock minus the lowered suspension and all 71's

see ten · 09-17-2007, 05:05 PM

I thank you, and Brian thanks you! I'm sure Chuckles thanks you as well. Don't worry folks we'll be here all week!

The green truck is a 71 and the blue and the red are both 72 models. I don't know if you can call them all stock or not (probably not

) All three trucks have Vintage Air and of course the ride height has been adjusted a smidge. The green one is a non original motor truck as well as the blue one. None of the engines are stock, but slightly warmed up a bit. I believe they're all running aluminum intakes as well as a non-stock cam in the blue and the green. The red one has been bored and has roller tip rockers and underdrive pullies. All the trucks are running HEI. Both the red and green have uncut dashs with pushbutton radios in the stock location as well as CD head units in the glovebox. The red and green trucks are also running electric fans and have removed the engine driven ones.

Almost looks all original here doesn't it!

And the other.

I am the anti chrome! I even painted the new aluminum intake orange!

**SactoJim** · 09-17-2007, 05:16 PM

SHOW OFF!!!!!!!

Trucks look awesome!!....and nice wheel choice for the Green truck!

see ten · 09-17-2007, 08:08 PM

When I said uncut dashes I was refering to the commonly butchered radio area. Yes the holes had to be cut for the A/C vents. The colors are Metallic Dark Olive and Medium Red.

67_C-30 · 09-17-2007, 11:31 PM

Looks great guys!

timzrides · 09-17-2007, 05:13 PM

did you have to cut out the ac holes on the orange truck for vintage air. i saw you wrote un cut dashes but i have seen the side vents but wasn't for sure? What are the colors for the orange and green ones, actually a more technical name of some sort.? stock colors might be a better name,

**SactoJim** · 10-09-2007, 11:16 PM

beautiful trucks.......love the new wheels!
