77 Big 10 · 11-18-2015, 11:37 PM

Nice.

77c10 · 11-19-2015, 08:44 AM

I'm "green" with envy.... I love that color combination. Which LS are you going with? I'm about to drop a 6.0/4L80 in my 77.

HotRod C/10 · 11-19-2015, 09:13 AM

5.3/4l80............withe goodies

Im gonna wait till it warms up......got lots to do to it before then.

UKNOWME · 11-20-2015, 12:01 AM

Yeah I'm kinda dragging my feet on mine. Not sure if I wanna do the swap or bag it first. Oh and I need a little extra cash.
What other plans do you have for yours?

What other plans do you have for hours?

work on cleaning up some of the interior......its pretty clean, but dash has small cracks near speaker, a/c vents need to be replaced, door panels are not the correct ones for 77........not sure why they were changed install tilt column (still looking for one).

BigMike608 · 11-20-2015, 09:23 AM

really digging the look with the new wheels!

Pretty truck!

Thanks, it was the cleanest truck I could find at the time. It hasn't even had its first bath since I bought it.

Dude...you live in New Mexico. Does it really get cold there. If I waited until it was warm enough, I'd only work on my junk one month out of the year.

Anywho, aside from the ball busting, that is a beautiful truck. I also really like the new wheels on it. they fit the truck well.

Very nice, clean, great colors... Good luck with your LS swap. I'm just finishing up an LS swap in a 75 SWB along with a new suspension.
