Hello everyone, been reading this forum for a while. Thought I would share my ride with you. It's a 71 Cheyenne Super. I'm not very familiar with posting photos, but I will try and post before and after pics.

Re: New member
More pics.
I basically bought it in October of 2015, and built it to go to Crusin the Coast the following October. It was a lot of work, but worth it. I get a lot of complements on it. Someone will have to tell me how to rotate the pictures, it's a little beyond my abilities. |

Re: New member
Can't do the brushguard. Whoever installed it originally cut up the bumper and frame horns, luckily I had a good bumper.

Also did a little work on the C20. Mounted and aligned the new door, and painted the hood. I've received 2 drivers doors in, both were bent. The third one is on the way.

Re: New member
very nice trucks!
try taking your iphone pictures with the phone tilted left to horizontal (thumb button to the right). that should fix your rotation problem.

Re: New member
Yes, it was originally a long bed. Searched long and hard for a short wheel base. The few I found were apparently laced with gold. I got this one at a good price, and already planned on new sheet metal, so the couple of hours it took to cut the frame down wasn't a deterrent for me.
