Re: How about some pictures of '73-'87 short beds

WOW! I could have sworn I had already posted my truck in here. Guess not.




I have since removed those hideous rear tires, and it looks a million times better. Brought the rear end about 2 1/2" down. Unfortunitely my camera took a dump.

I'll throw some vids in here too. I know its slow but we all start somewhere.

Here's one I have of mine.

Description: After about 10 months of the motor just sitting and about 5 months of being swapped from my 72 Nova into the truck, I was finally able to crank up the motor for the first time today since. After wiring up all of the MSD ignition we poured a little gas in the carb and it fired up like I just ran it moments before. And yes.. I was a little excited.

Re: How about some pictures of '73-'87 short beds

And here is a couple older, slightly rarer vids you might have not yet seen. These two vids were of a grudge race between G-OLD and an '03.

G-OLD vs 03 Silverado Race 1:

Re: How about some pictures of '73-'87 short beds

Here are some pics of box chevys a guy from our local frorum took of a local car show in Sout Padre Island:

Pics don't do this truck justice. I've seen it in person and it is simply awesome. Triple stage black, paint looks super deep.

Re: How about some pictures of '73-'87 short beds

Here is mine that I am working on. I have it tore down now with full air ride and doing all the metal work for new paint and interior. Still undecided on wheels.

When I got it. I have had it since I was 14.



Last year. Rat Rod Style.


Last Month. Air Ride but still Rat Rod. I want a clean custom now not a junker.


Thanks,
Jason
