72 short
Hey guys.
Just joined and figured I would pop in and say hey. Here is my newly aquired toy. 72 short bed, originally a six but now is equipped with basic 350/350. Paint was nice but has been sanded down and rattle canned patina, looks better this way. Lowered, rally's plastic dipped black. Will be going to a 275/60 rear, 255/60 front to bring me down alittle more and also give a fatter look to the rear. 255/70 rear now, 235/75 fronts. Look forward to gaining knowledge here. Outside is basically finished, gonna concentrate on motor now, she runs great now but looking to be around 400hp.

Re: 72 short
Thanks guys, lots of badass trucks on this board. Mine is getting Flowmaster 40's tomorrow. She is dumped at rear axle, should sound alot better than the factory style mufflers now.

Re: 72 short
I see you may also own a 6 liter... Good thing you have a reliable 350 at the end of the day. Great looking short box, very cool look and welcome to the site.
