hey don't get me wrong...

That truck is positively bad ass, but some things just don't fit.

black paint on a smooth body, looking very cool.

wheels and tires, look great with that body.

383 decals work with that body and paint very well

I am not a big fan of the rear window mural, I would have gone with a regular smoked window with a slider..

Nothing says 'Whacker' like a police interceptor emblem on a vehicle that was never made for police service. It looks just as dorky on a chevette. Lose it and if you must put an emblem there, how about 'cowl induction' or just '383' ?

Also, that Pete logo is lost on the front of that truck... There's nothing else even remotely petebuilt so it really looks out of place... Go with nothing, or put a stepside bed on it, and install stacks... Then that peterbuilt logo might make some sense...

That's my 2 cents, it's your truck, do what you will... It's 98 percent there... Just needs tweaking.

Wow,

I had no idea you were so thin skinned... You posted, I gave an opinion...

You are welcome to offer a similar honest opinion about my posts. My truck is in here just like yours is. If you like it, that's great! If not, I'm big enough to realize everyone has their own opinion, and take it as it was given.

If you're not interested in what people have to say, (or can't handle what you're being told) then don't ask them for it.

I certainly didn't mean to offend you.

I guess it could've been worse, at least I didn't bash Michigan State....

GO BUCKEYES!

ROFLMFAO

Re: Post Your Ride 88-98 Trucks

You have misunderstood me. The "Bailiff, wack his pepe" is from Cheech and Chong's Trippin' in Court. I was just quoting that saying because Matt Mann said "Bailiff". Sorry, I didn't mean to offend Harley1650, I do like the truck, and I do like the skeletons in the back window.

Re: Post Your Ride 88-98 Trucks

Chevydog, I understood your bailiff reference. I think I still have that on 8 track.

That other dude knows nothing about me. When he uses words like "whacker" (whatever that is) and "dorky" when talking about something I have spent a lot of cash and have a lot of blood and sweat into its not about being thin skinned.

I have built numerous hotrods and would never pick apart someone's ride. I don't expect everyone to have the same taste as I do.

To be honest, I would like the administrator to remove the pictures I posted.

jeez,

it was a freakin joke!

I had no idea you were so sensitive... Did you even READ what i posted? Guess you missed all of the positive things I said at the start.

What is this the ladies room, or a truck forum?

Man, If you don't want someone else's opinion, don't ask for it.

Go ahead and whine some more to the mods...

You asked a question and I answered honestly... If you had bothered to read my post, I think you might find at least a few things I actually said positive things about...

Instead you had to wet your pants over the fact someone din't like that dorky 'peterbuilt' emblem on a gasoline powered truck. Heck, why not put some stacks on it?

The whacker comment was over the police interceptor emblem, (police interceptor is a FORD designation by the way, and since the truck was a CHEVY, and had no other 'police' features, I thought it looked out of place.)

Again if you don't want someone's honest opinions don't ask for them. It's your truck, I could care less what you do with it, it was a very sharp looking truck, (I believe I actually did say that to you in my original post...) It's just had some things i thought were out of place...

And for the record, I never said anything remotely about you until I got tagged by the mods privately over this....

I had no idea you were so sensitive, I guess I'm just lucky I wasn't talking sports with you. That whole Ohio/Michigan thing would've really sent you over the edge.

164k+ miles, 350/4L60E (I think? Anybody know for sure what the last year for 700R4 was?) -- drivetrain all stock, except for tbi spacer and possibly a computer chip (haven't pulled the glovebox to see)

18" eagle alloys, previous owner pulled out one of the leaves to even the ride height out -- wife thinks it's too bouncy, but I like the stance

Summit stock size drilled/slotted rotors up front, rear is all factory -- 3.08 open diff with drums

clean original interior with pioneer head unit and RF amp and subs...with ipod hookup in the dash

Needless to say, I've got plans...like vortec heads, multi-point efi, posi rear with disc brakes...just need a little time and cash!

Very nice, clean looking truck. I like it. Should be a 4L60-E, 1993 was the first year in trucks, 94 in rear wheel drive cars.

The Vortec heads and multi point injection would be a good idea, and cheap if you just ripped upper end stuff off a 96-up Vortec with the computer and wire stuff. Nice truck, now I gotta get pics of my truck up after the lift.

Re: Post Your Ride 88-98 Trucks

1991 S-10 Blazer, Sport package, with a few uncommon/nice options, with the rare factory moonroof. This was what turned me from a F@#D kid to a Chevy man. This was my first real vehicle, and my first 'wheeler, and she sure did wheel a lot;



Then came the next gem, 69 C-10 350 4speed,



Next came the real beauty.

1997 K1500 Z71. My pride and joy, my first real truck except for the 69 C-10, this is the product of my blood and sweat, this was my first real love, this truck is my life. And my money pit.

Right after I first got it, except the push bar and toolbox:



Then, with wheels and tires:





Aaaaaaannnnnnnnndddddd now, it's evolved into this, and I am far from done with it.

6" Superlift, 16x8" Eagle Alloy wheels wrapped with 35" Dick Cepek Crushers. I am definitly not done with it, upcoming will be gears, full replacement front bumper, winch, maybe a double single chrome rollbar, lots of KC lights, and that's just the beginning. Truck already has ten grand hard cash into it, within the past two years, and maybe five or ten more, hah.









Sorry for the cruddy images, color or quality isnt very good, I used a crappy camera. Other pics can be found in my Photobucket, follow the linky in my signature.

Re: Post Your Ride 88-98 Trucks

is it just me, or does it almost look like I've got closer to 4" than 6" of lift? It seems way too tight, and it does rub over bumps that it shouldn't. Otherwise, I love it. As if I didn't get enough compliments about this truck before, wow. Not to mention some grins, smiles, and stares, hah. Truck looks way nicer in person, believe me. Anyways, keep em comin.
