Re: 84 CHEVY SWB CREW CAB-Austin Craigslist

Is it me, or does the bed/wheel opening position look odd???

It appears that they cut the long bed down "behind" the wheels rather than using a short bed.

You nailed it. That's what looked funny about it. Never noticed it till you said it.

This is the one Zoomad75 was referring to. It was a 4x4 (and a damn nice looking one too!) that he converted to a 2wd.
IIRC, the owner was a parts manager or something at a dealer so eveything was new and OEM.

Re: 84 CHEVY SWB CREW CAB-Austin Craigslist

I was thinking that too. Looks like the rear of the bed behind the wheels got chopped down somehow.

I have a redneck uncle (more redneck than me, anyway) who's a big time 4x4 guy. That looks like one of their mods they call "the bob" that they do I think to get better departure angles in the back.

Re: 84 CHEVY SWB CREW CAB-Austin Craigslist

Looks photoshopped to me!

But maybe that's just cuz a SWB on a crew cab just looks odd...

Re: 84 CHEVY SWB CREW CAB-Austin Craigslist

Wasn't there a member on here from TX that had built a SWB crew as a 4x4 but had converted it to a lowered 2wd? It was a similar blue color too.

There aren't that many converted to SWB so I'm thinking it might be the same one.

Re: 84 CHEVY SWB CREW CAB-Austin Craigslist

Thats a standard short wheel base bed on that truck (the one on cl). I think the pictures make the wheels look off a little because of the angle . Neat truck . Frank

Re: 84 CHEVY SWB CREW CAB-Austin Craigslist

Maybe it is the same truck, minus the wheels. Maybe it is even the same seller that is a member of this board?
