Stepside, you have a sweet truck! I don't suppose there are any more 2wd shortbeds in your area for sale? I am looking for a 67-72 2wd swb,...or a 73-87 shortbed. I just want a nice clean driver. I have lowering stuff for both trucks, just need a truck. Thanks.

stepside454 · 03-13-2004, 02:31 PM

lowlife, there was a yellow 70 short/step for sale here recently, sold now.. theres a decent 65 short fleet side 4 sale not far from me too.

stepside454 · 03-13-2004, 02:34 PM

low life thanks for the compliment by the way.

TIMSPEED · 03-13-2004, 04:03 PM

what size tires did you decide on?

stepside454 · 03-13-2004, 04:37 PM

225/70s & 275/60s

corn · 03-13-2004, 06:28 PM

Man I love that truck! Will you post some more shots of it or could you email a bunch of them to me? I like the stance & the tire wheel combo is exactly what I shooting for on mine. What lowering combo do you run?...Larry

84Stepside · 03-13-2004, 06:58 PM

Good Looking Stepside
those lights look familiar

Was curious, do you have a source for the brackets the lights attach to? One of mine is on its last leg. Also, what did you use to wire the lights to your truck, my PO used something I can no longer find. And btw, this weekend, I cleaned out my carport, so I can actually park in it
LoL

**lolife99** · 03-13-2004, 10:05 PM

I really like the 67-72 trucks. I have a 71 short wide project,and a 99 swb, 4/6 lowered. I guess I'm going to have to buy a 73-87, so I can find one in my price range. Hard to find a clean cheap truck. $2500-$4500.

stepside454 · 03-14-2004, 12:12 AM

84stepside, LMC has those brackets, I think there like 8.00 each. I still had the original connectors under there , just had to run em back through the holes in the side & plug em in, I got the new taillights @ Carquest.
Cornfed, Ive been trieng to resize my new oics I took today, lets see how this does.

84Stepside · 03-14-2004, 09:45 AM

Hey, Thanks for the source, have their catalog, will check it out. Those lights are also at NAPA, Advance Auto, etc. Will figure something out about the connectors.
Again Thanks

stepside454,

That looks sweet.

That's the same tire sizes I am going to go with too.

We should meet up some time. Do you ever go to the Fenton meet on Friday nights?

Brandon
