*1974k5blazer* · 09-22-2008, 09:03 PM

how does it ride?? some spare tires in the bed would really set it off too!

leftcoast66 · 09-22-2008, 09:22 PM

Dang, that looks badass. Truck looks awesome with the bags.

Dinos63 · 09-22-2008, 10:04 PM

Your truck is turning out great. I bet your gonna like that longbed in Truckin this month.

rodstored-72 · 09-29-2008, 03:09 PM

dino,
i hate to break the bad news to you but your idea was stolen & is already in the latest issue of "truckin". as soon as i saw it i thought... man! dino got that finished quick!!! (lol)
good job! hope to see you at the meet on the 25th....

take care!

suzq044 · 09-29-2008, 05:31 PM

I will have to check that issue out. Thanks for the heads-up.. even if it wasn't directed at me.

After having bought the issue; I think you're talking about the Matt .. (from the UFC)'s truck.. I like it, but it's not a long-travel, it's just a regular 4x4.. iirc (can't find the magazine right now tho)

slick65 · 10-11-2008, 10:07 PM

awesome project. im new to this site. definatly alot of cool rides on here. i think ive talked to you before dinos63 at a phx car show. anyways nice work. how do i post pics up of my truck? i have a 65 4x4

66Gilbert · 10-12-2008, 11:50 PM

Hey slick65, once you figure out how to post pictures go on over to the 4x4 forum and check out the thread titled "Let's see how many 60-66 4x4's are out there" Welcome to the forums. Is that a big back window truck? And yes Dino's truck is awesome.

Dinos63 · 10-13-2008, 12:14 AM

slick65 · 10-13-2008, 12:28 AM

yes it is a big window, custom trim truck, just waiting to put on all the trim till its final block and paint. and yeh ill look for that thread.

Another thought though; doesn't the air-bag system kind of negate the offroad-ability of the truck, considering that you're relying on the air ride to stay intact on what could be a rough landing, if you ever fly it.. and being in AZ, you definitely have the opportunity

IMO these buggies with air bag suspension will be put through a lot more abuse than his truck will.
