Might I inquire what you did for your front roll pan? Looks awesome!

navybear70 · 01-29-2007, 11:01 PM

OK. I've got two for ya! The red '80 was mine in Hawaii. The yellow one was one a won on ebay. The night I won the auction, it was stolen and wrecked...sigh. That's ok though, God worked it out with a 69 C-10.

killthewabbit · 02-01-2007, 03:59 PM

I've referenced this one a couple times on this board already, so I may as well add it here. My pics from a Barrett-Jackson auction a few years back, but not my truck:

My75Shorty · 02-03-2007, 04:22 AM

There are a lot of beauties on this thread!!!!! Here is mine nothing special, but look aggressive, hehe.

You are right. That is a very nice '86. Wonder if he still has it and how it looks today?

86swb · 02-03-2007, 02:45 PM

They came on as far as I know, the '67-'72 Chevy trucks. Maybe others also.

They are the 'sport' mirrors & were available through 87. I bought some of them (GM NOS) when i bought my 74. The 71-72 style are slightly different from the 73 & up style.

My truck

86swb · 02-07-2007, 11:25 PM

URECKME, are those holes in your finder? Looks like bullet holes. Other than that, looks like a nice truck. Where are you getting the 700R4? With that set up what RPM do you think you will be getting around 60mph?

Rc 415 · 02-07-2007, 11:41 PM

^^ I believe those holes are actually from the originl trim.

Or does anybody have a similar drop, that can give me an idea of what drop that is?

5/5 ........ 5/7 maybe?
