Re: Low Buck Build Threads Help or LBBTH

Been a busy bee. That time of the year. I hope to spend some time searching soon. But as always please post'em up if you got some to post. I'd like some S10 stuff as well. I know there's a bunch there to be had. Also I'd like to see some more '88 and on trucks as well. So let's get crackin.

Re: Low Buck Build Threads Help or LBBTH

There's some really creative folks on here doing really good work with a really limited budget. Sometimes it isn't the cost it's more of the drive in the person.

Re: Low Buck Build Threads Help or LBBTH

Oh yeah I check in daily.....or at least when he posts up. I actually check that side of the forum daily. So many cool trucks being built. I get so excited when he and yourself post up stuff you've been working on. The quality is top notch. Alex's truck is really coming along nicely. I'm telling you guys if you haven't checked out his build or haven't checked in awhile you have no idea what you are missing. He's truly an inspiration for all of us, not just some. Take the time and look through his build. If you have questions he's always glad to answer them as well. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=446527 I'll throw up a link to his build again so that you can access it quickly now. Just go and check it out!!!

Re: Low Buck Build Threads Help or LBBTH

Alright, but once this rig is done, I think I may stop taking these trucks apart for a while or until I break mine again.

Re: Low Buck Build Threads Help or LBBTH

I'm still digging away. If you haven't looked in on some of these builds in awhile or you haven't took the time to check them out you really should. A lot of these trucks are on going and have a lot of cool stuff being done. You need to be checking them out.

Re: Low Buck Build Threads Help or LBBTH

Well throw them up and I'll check them out, We found out that the 73 4x4 isnt a 3/4 ton I just dropped another 500 into the rear axle and its now a 1 ton 4x4 lol, I have 13 inch drum brakes in the rear with 13 disc brakes up front better stopping power. I am trying to get ahold of a 396 or another 350 v8 for my truck.
