Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds

a while back i had the link of someone widening those type of rims they just cut the rim edge on a lathe and weld a band in between
the wheels are steel so there pretty eazy to weld the job wasnt too expensive either compared to a rim ready build the size you want
you do need to paint them though unless you go in instead of out http://www.weldcraftwheels.com/index-1.html

look wat i just found .... http://www.earlywheel.com/rallywheels.html

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds

Finally snapped some pictures of the big toy! 2010 marks it's 7th year since my dad and I finished the frame off restoration... looking pretty good still after all it's off-road adventures. (Need to get that grille back on, working on getting the A/C back together)

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds

I just got around to snapping some shots of my daily driver...

My grandpa bought it brand new, ordered it from the family salesman at Cerritos Chevrolet! Its a '76 Fulltime 4x4, 350/350, 243k miles on the original engine and trans! The paint was redone back in the mid 80's, its all original...



Thats right, it has Pepe Le Pew on it!

No. I wish. I'd like to have a 2wd version of it and drop it.

I originally saw this thing sitting outside a bodyshop near Gainesville, TX, about 90 miles from my town. It was in process then and still had the stock black and gray 2-tone on it, but had the dually fenders on it. A few months later I saw it in its completed state sitting outside a store in Scotland, TX, about 30 miles from here. Those pics were taken in the local Sam's parking lot. I see it around town from time to time.
