some neighbor hood squares - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

bigblock73 · 08-27-2009, 08:52 PM

These are all within two blocks of where I live...so I decided to go out tonight and grab some pictures.

Red one must be a visitor, haven't seen it before. Completely shaved, welded tailgate, 1 piece windows, cowl hood...and a tag that read "75 rat". VERY nice truck, looks much better in person...pics don't do it justice.

The two squares are 1 block from me. Haven't seen the lifted one off the trailer, but the 3/4 ton one (maybe 1 ton...dunno) is driven frequently and tows the lifted one occasionaly.

The white 80's box hasn't moved in a while, I saw it being towed home one day last fall. When it did run, it sounded REAL healthy.

Last one is my 77, which is going to get a 4/6 in about 2 weeks.

Peeping tom?

Sorry that's all I could think. Some good looking trucks there. I could do that in my neighborhood too. Maybe I should this weekend or something. This could turn into a fun thread.

is that a custom window or something. it looks really good, where i would i be able to find two sets of those? i bet they would be expensive though.

SBTork · 08-28-2009, 01:39 AM

very cool. Any plans of putting the white steel wheels back on your truck once lowered? Just curious.

andrewmp6 · 08-28-2009, 05:56 AM

Ortega if your talking about the red truck its a one piece window kit http://www.onepieceproducts.com/ and brothers trucks both have there own kits.I can't believe that f150 can pull that truck.The f150 towing weight is about 6k and that's about how much that truck weights i bet.

I think CaptKaos, a board vendor, has them. Check with him.

I agree, it would be cool. Let's make a neighbor hood thread.

bigblock73 · 08-28-2009, 01:56 PM

I agree, lets see all the 73-87's in our area...would be fun!

Nope, sold the crappy wagon wheels a while back. These are 88-98 steel wheels/centers/lug covers, powercoated black. They will be staying for now, going with a low-buck theme on the 77.

DubDubU · 08-28-2009, 08:51 PM

i like the red one and the white one.

3r!c84 · 08-28-2009, 09:05 PM

man i wish i had my camera on me seen like 2 k5s and 4k10s

hessian18 · 08-28-2009, 09:19 PM

I pissed off a guy in a 90+ suburban today....

If the road narrows to one lane and I have my blinker on.....WHY speed up ? Of course I didnt change my line

Haha, crappy wagon wheels, I agree. Your truck with those wagon wheels reminded me of my old '86, just a shortbed version.

Truck looks good
