New pics of my 78' Step

Well, a couple weeks have gone by and I've done a good amount of work to her. I removed the crude naked stick ppl from the tailgate, put on some 2 1/2 Inch Exhaust with Flowmaster Super 40 mufflers, flipped the tires black wall, serviced the motor and tranny and replaced some seals. I bought some stain and whenever I have time I will buy some polished strips and take the bed out, stain it and put in the new strips.



I would post pics of the stick people but I believe that they are a little inappropriate for the forum

She's looking nice and clean. Are you running a notch with your drop?

c-notch

No the truck does not have a C-notch, but I'll eventually install one, the truck will be getting lower, statically another 2-3" until I can have enough $$ to bag it.

The steps were actually on the truck when I bought it, but when I had my white stepside I asked a chrome shop what it would take to chrome the steps and they said it was $150 each, for 'show chrome'

I have been looking for the chrome steps myself. I had them and mine also got rusty. If you find them let me know, please. Great looking truck.
