Awesome!!!

Since it's already so nice, what is there left for you to do?

Got any engine pics?

Now you have to change your sig line

Are we going to get the details, or do we have to beg....

Details? 1987 w/ 80,000 original miles, stock TBI 350, 700R4, A/C, ART 4-link, Slam Specialties bags' w/ billet end caps, 1/2" line and fittings, Nitrogen bottle, 4-way compressor system, and what else you can see.

Plans for the truck are detail work. Basically, what N2TRUX has done to his recently.

I'm going to add my DJM spindles, PST front-end kit, and possibly Cool-Ride kit too.

No engine pics. right now.

I don't mind the flamed window tint and I like the tail lights because they are uncommon on our trucks. JMO.

TIMSPEED · 10-05-2003, 11:34 PM

Are those 18 or 20" 212's on there? I LIKE it D! Now, that truck will make it down to Modesto right?

BTW: That interior is SIIIICK.

They are 20's.

How much do you think they cost? I honestly have no idea.

It will make it down to Modesto if you buy my leaf springs. :p

I really like the relocated window/door lock switches and painted steering column.

bigblock73---I don't know but they look like LED's.

Thanks for the replies everyone. It will be different actually being in a show for once.

The 20's are $205 each.
So, this means we can caravan over to the show next month in Pleasanton?

BTW2: That's pretty DAMN low for not being spindled or cross member dropped...

Wow, that's cheap! I'll have fun polishing them, that's for sure!

I'll be at Pleasanton if it's not raining. PM me when the show is closer.

Yeah, I thought it had lowered spindles too.

Yeah, but it's the tires that are $$$, for like 275/40 20's they're like $250 each...that's why I went with 17's for $1200, instead of 20's for $2000.
How low is it actually laying? Looks like the rocker is about 2" off the ground!

Purchasing new tires will be fun!

I'm not sure, as I have yet to see it in person. The prior owner to the current owner, owns a shop in Fresno and built the truck. The current owner also works at a custom shop.

84Stepper · 10-06-2003, 12:00 AM

Sweet truck man I realy like it. I love everything about it!

Low87on20s · 10-07-2003, 03:38 PM

I can't believe I missed this thread. Killer Truck.

I pondered doing the caddy tail lights on my truck. Can you take some up close pictures so that I can actually see how deep they are recessed?

Izzy · 10-07-2003, 03:59 PM

Like I told you on FSC very sweet.

BTW don't forget about sending me a lits of parts off the other bucket.

**Captkaos** · 10-07-2003, 04:13 PM

Very sweet ride!

1974StepSide · 10-07-2003, 04:44 PM

Very nice truck, I'm looking forward to seeing it in person if you do go the Pleasanton show in Nov. I've always liked the look of Caddy tail-lights on late model Chevys and I wondered how they would look like on 73-87, I think they look great... Looks like it's a well-built ride

Low87 · 10-07-2003, 05:12 PM

DAYUM!!! That is nice!

r0lf- · 10-07-2003, 05:24 PM

Tell your friend to compress it in divx and he should know exactly what your talking about.

phantom dually · 10-07-2003, 08:43 PM

I like it alot. I have also thought of doing caddy lights but thought it may look weird BUT it rocks!! Nice truck man.

BaggedC10 · 10-07-2003, 09:47 PM

Thanks everyone. I drove the truck home and around for a total of 250-miles today.

It only needs minor detail work and a few chassis upgrades. Nothing major that won't be done soon.
