Thanks, the guy who varnished them originally screwed up and it was ruined after only one year.. and i wanted to do something different and I never saw anyone do that before so i figured what the hell.. i've been only to 4 shows up here and only have one first place in my class because people up here have no class or sense to vote.. that and noone really knows how much work it takes to do it.. i probably have at least 20 hours in the wood alone.. i want to take all the diamond plate off because lately i just haven't liked it and i feel the bed rails are iffy too..plus i want to get a cover and put the gate back on

wheels are 15X8 in front and 15x10 in rear..deep deep offset rear tire size i have no clue.. got them over 5 years ago.. biggest indy profile SS's you can find i think..bought them WAAYY long ago with the cragars. front sportsmans are 215/65/15's if i recall. bought them bigger for the load rating.

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

Here's my stock 85 again. I already have a DJM 5/5" drop kit, new belltech shocks, and eagle alloy 225 20"s... just waiting on a few days off from work to wrench and bust knuckles....


I was online tonight and ran across these pics, thought I would share... the last tan&red one is my favorite!
Keep the stock look alive!
