84 SWB Silverado Build
I bought this truck from the original owner when I was 15. I drove it through HS and a little through college. It started getting rust and I didn't have the cash to fix it, so I parked it in my parents' barn for the last 8 years.
This fall I took it to Larry and the crew at Flyin Eye Kreations in Wichita, KS. They fixed the rust and gave it a new paint job. I am really happy with the way it turned out and want to share pics with you all.    Posted via Mobile Device Posted via Mobile Device

Re: 84 SWB Silverado Build
The paint color almost looks like a super dark blue. Or is it black?

Re: 84 SWB Silverado Build
Hi, it looks great! I have an '84 Silverado SWB hat is Dark Blue and Silver but has the bench seat. Are those stock buckets/console, or did you add them? If so, where did you get them- very nice.

Re: 84 SWB Silverado Build
Thanks for the feedback. Sorry I'm slow to reply.
Seats and console are from a 67-72 Blazer. It would be worth the drive from Ponca. Let me know if you come up, and I'll meet you at the shop so you can see my truck. Posted via Mobile Device

Re: 84 SWB Silverado Build
Thanks for all the compliments. I am jacked about the magazine feature! I think the article turned out sweet!!
The wheels are Intro Vista 20x10 and 20x8. The single paint schemes are cool too, but I think the factory trim is a must! Posted via Mobile Device
