both of mine used to be, but the burb has faded to a grayish, and the longhorn is a faded rusty mess.

brett3xx · 12-09-2010, 01:02 AM

Id love to see a satin black swb stepside, dropped, with black wheels! Anyone have a pic of that?

ESLL was the last word on satin black GMCs. RIP brother.

Hey STP67-72, what are you running for tire size on those 338's?

johnyoung · 12-09-2010, 10:50 AM

I am fairly new to the forum and will try to post photo of "El Diablo" my 67 short step side, big block, loaded down with options. 3/5 drop and 18" 338's with 8" on the front and the 9 1/2 on the back. We have been building on this evil truck since summer. Anyone out there ever had a truck fight them on eveything. I first called it the money pit and it still is but we changed the name to "El Diablo" as it just want give in. I'll try to post some pictures tonight. We were ready to fire up the 454 yesteday for the first time and the spark plug wires the guy got me are the wrong ones - everything has been like that. Anyone know how to exercise the demons out of my truck or at least lay hands on it.
Pictures this evening.

Thanks Steve. Any more shots...from the side? My 67 is set up almost exactly with that same drop and I am trying to figure out what size tires. I was thinking 275-45's all the way around because I don't like the really small sidewall...but the 255-45s look pretty decent as far as sidewall goes in that picture.

**STP67-72** · 12-09-2010, 09:57 PM

Yes i should have some pictures. I will try to take some this weekend. I wanted to go 295s on rear but didn't. Most people on this board are using the 245, 255, 275, 295 series but 40,s little shorter. I will post pictures asap.

GRUMPYONE · 12-09-2010, 10:38 PM

I just bought a 70 step side for the wife. going to take it to the paint book and spray simi black. putting 16 smoothies ww and then going down to the interior shop and putting red and black interior. Got luck i aprentice at both shops so just out material. I will start a build thread when get it going.

bobshotrodblazer · 02-09-2011, 02:38 PM

bajaracing · 02-10-2011, 02:27 PM

Mine is just flat black primer. I don't suggest you use primer like I did. It fades & stains easily.

Before

2 yrs later, not garaged, dailey driver

Im in the process of sanding the flames off, preping the truck for HotRod Flatz http://www.tcpglobal.com/kustomshop/HRF201.aspx
