Nice day and the truck was blingin' so I took a pic. And at shows I've been having alot of people say "so where's the trailer" . Check out the odometer. I'm doing my best to rack up the miles. And I'm getting a small sticker for on my chrome radiator cover that says TRAILER QUEENS SUCK
build em' drive em'

The first year having it done I only put on 2,400 miles
The second year when I parked it it had 5,900 miles on it
So far this year I've had it out for almost 3 months and its reading just over 10,500

72chevyLWB really nice truck you got there, what do you have under the hood, you got the stance just right

Gordo · 08-03-2003, 08:53 PM

Nice ride, Dude!

krue · 08-03-2003, 08:53 PM

Sweet truck!

72chevyLWB · 08-03-2003, 09:12 PM

The color is Intense Blue Pearlcoat off of the 98ish Dodge Rams, Dakota's and Durango's. The PPG # is 5357 not exactly sure what the Dodge # is. Here is an underhood pic, sorry its filthy right now though. Just a 350 taken .030 over, flat top's, vortecs, RPM air gap intake, 750 carb, hedman headers and a big a&$ air filter (traded a bent up push bar for it) and all the oooh, aahh dress up crap. Thanks for the comments.

72chevyLWB · 08-03-2003, 09:13 PM

I'll have to post a pic later because its not letting me. And I forgot, the grill is a Trenz Phantom billet grille. You have to do alot of modifying to make it work but I love it (except for cleaning). They run $350 in the magazines.

chevy_fatman · 08-03-2003, 09:17 PM

Nice truck!, everytime I see it my mind just starts wandering, maybe one day.

Is that a 2 in. cowl hood, did I tell you that your truck looks nice?

67pro-street · 08-03-2003, 09:33 PM

beautiful truck. hope mine will look like that someday. one question for you. what kind of cover do you have on the bed and how much does one of those things run for.

thanks

67pro-street

72chevyLWB · 08-03-2003, 09:57 PM

It is a Goodmark steel cowl hood, so it is 2" rise. I believe that is the only size Goodmark makes. I think fiberglass hoods are mainly 3" to 5". The Tonneau cover is a Checkmate brand. They are EXPENSIVE, but I wanted a low profile cover. They are out of Kentuky and by time my $93 shipping charge was added it was around the $550 range? somewhere in there. The fiberglass is really wavy though. I want to smooth it and body color it this winter. It took me exactly 37 minutes by myself start to finish to install.
And I'll try that engine pic again.
pic still won't work, hmmm. takes me to one of those page not available things. I'll try it tomorrow.

iluvmy72 · 08-04-2003, 12:12 AM

I know the owner of Trenz.....His name is Doug.......his shop is really cool.......he just got done doing a custom job for Lakers star Shaqeal O'neal......he is making me a custom grill that no one else has....we are going to change an older style 67 GMC grill for my 72....can't wait till it's done......but since he's charging me very little, I have to wear his window decal this next year and attend 2 shows this next year(parking lots do count)

GMC69 · 08-04-2003, 12:54 AM

All I have to say is HOLY F@#$ that truck is sweet. Don't think I will go that low for mine ( roads are really bad around here) but damn that is nice.

If you have larger pics of the truck, PM me and I can give you my email address, the more pics I get, the more ideas I have to play with.

casey · 08-04-2003, 02:02 AM

I'll bet that (just a 350) really screams, how much work is it to put those one peice door windows in, that looks sharp

Hooter · 08-04-2003, 03:06 AM

I really like your grille, first time ive seen that!

72chevyLWB · 08-04-2003, 01:30 PM

I think the truck will pull mid 14's is all on the track

but I don't have 10,000 for a sweet engine. I'll post some grille and tonneau cover pics for you guys too. And once again I'll try the engine.

72chevyLWB · 08-04-2003, 01:31 PM

WHY WON'T PICS LOAD???????

ucmydust68 · 08-04-2003, 04:04 PM

DUTCHMAN · 08-04-2003, 04:20 PM

Dean23 · 08-04-2003, 04:46 PM

nice truck. luv the color and the stance

72chevyLWB · 08-04-2003, 06:49 PM

Oh man, that pic is 3 years old already. I have since then repainted the firewall, bodycolored the heater box, brake booster and some brackets and repainted wheel tubs. Also different intake, carb, air filter and headers. And you can see in the pic that I changed the grille and wheels and gave it more drop.

My wheels now are 20X8 front 4.5"bs and 20X9.5 rear with 5.5" bs Eagle 221's with Bridgestone Pole Position S-03 245/35's in front and 275/30 in the rear. I'm going to take a new pic and try again in a bit.
