Wow the truck looks great in that picture. Is it the factory red? And what did you use to seal the evaporator box?

very nice truck!!!
I dig the old alpine!!
what are those wheels, they look super sweet on your square!!

roll_low · 12-30-2009, 04:01 PM

Looks sick!! I really like the way those wheels look! Good choice! Did you shave those cab lights off or were they just reflectors?

rddiaz · 12-30-2009, 08:25 PM

Thanks (silvereagle07) that is the factory red, I used strip-calk from napa, then seam sealer all edges then topped it of with rubberized spray undercoating to deaden sound and to keep water out.

(spr85gmc), I did have it CL to see if I would get any offers, but none yet; I am goin keep it for at least another year, or at least till texmex in march, lol. I've taken the front tires off to work on the ac box so I don't plan on goin anywhere till then....

(joe231) Yeah love that tape deck too, the rims are 22" billet raceline,thanks.

(roll_low)thanks man, I haven't shaved the roof yet because I don't wanna do any bodywork to it yet, so I think I'm just goin to put some plugs in or sometin, but they were real working cab light on a SWB...
