87 c10 ob Houston C/L

Y'all know that blue isn't my favorite color. Despite that, I love this truck.

Re: 87 c10 ob Houston C/L

It's worth close to that, I'm sure he's got some bargaining cushion built into his price.

Not loving the shaved mirrors or the speakers in the door panels, but other than that it's really nice.

Re: 87 c10 ob Houston C/L

Beautiful. I think his price is "OK" but I cant blame him for listing it high. I wouldnt take 10K for my 86 with the 6.0 in it now... Looks like a very nicely done truck.

Re: 87 c10 ob Houston C/L

Wow, nice blue on that truck. It reminds me of Slugish's truck a little bit. I like the placement of the speakers for the function of them but it is not the best looking spot for sure. Overall, a nice truck.

That truck was (is?) local to the Dallas/Garland area. Redline Auto Group were the guys that started (finished) it. It was for sale @ the GG's FtWorth swap area too....

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Murf87, a new member, just bought that truck.

I called and talked to the guy about it when the shop that built it had it for sale. Seems like a really nice truck.

The 'previous' owners quizzed me on the drop & wheel/tire dimensions for my 74. The truck was pretty clean in stock form. They kept the updates clean & simple. I remember seeing it a couple of weeks ago @ an alignment shop here in Garland when I was driving to the bank mid-day.

That's odd! Wonder why he's showing the old pics that have different wheels and no cowl hood.

The pics from the CL ad must be from before Murf87 bought it is all I can assume. They just didn't delete the ad.

At first I didn't think it was the same truck just really close, until I saw the license plate.
