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.

very cool!
Thanks for the pics!!

^^^^Holy Crap, that's sexy!

I love it. Very good choice of colors too. Well done.
Only thing I'd like more is if she was bagged/slammed.

Love the Blazer too.
I've always wanted to see something done with the Duely Fenders on the front too!!!!!!
That'd look SO tough!!! Imagine the pain in the butt it would be to make the extension tho... tough??? If a 4WD axle, all it would be would be extending the axles/s and steering??? I might give it a shot some day.

Right now I'm working on this though.
Gotta figure out which method I'm gonna run with for droppin the rear 2 more inches.
I don't wanna C Notch if I don't have to, so I might just get longer shackles for the rear of the spring, and notch the support for the bed. Might work. We'll see. Too much rake for my taste.

Should have the new blower in within a couple weeks.

I posted a Hi, New to forum 81 C10 in the general 73-87 section about it.

Not a show truck, but super clean. and a bit of snort.

Im new to this site... so figured I'd share some photos.. Here's some pics of my 84 C-10. I've been slowly restoring it, even though it hasn't needed much... had to primer the hood and top of the cab... the paint was fading fast. Thanks for letting me share with the rest of the Square-Body inthusiasts....

Morfias4Twenty · 05-10-2010, 05:28 PM

It has about a 2 inch drop.... it was my dad's truck.... and what he did back in the day was.. cut a coil off the front springs, and take the overloads off the rear... it slams if i put any kind of a load in the back. Plan to bag it though.....

If i can remember correctly... The name of the color is "Saddle Tan", My dad had it painted once since he bought the truck back in 1989. This paint job's been on the truck like 15 years....
