from this camera angle they look really low, but i touch alot of measure ment and found out the my suspenion will bottom out, or control arms will scrape before the headers will. and besides its not gonna see that much road anyway.

and yea i anxious to see how itll look that low.

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

Hello all I'm new to this site and wanted to post some pictures of my 1984 Silverado...I had an 85 and sold it and just acquired this 84. I plan to lower the truck and make some modifications. It's got a rebuilt 350 bored .30 over, roller rockers, headers, edelbrock 650 carb, turbo 350 trans with a shift kit.

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

That 84 has been on CL for months, guess he finally sold it. Hope you got it for a lot less than what he thought his "show truck" was worth.

Welcome to the site!

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

Yeah I'd seen it on craigslist for a while, and yes I got an amazing deal on the truck. I think he just wanted to get rid of it!

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

Well, there is no denying it is a very clean truck and looks awesome! I just know at one time I seen advertised as a "show truck" and he was asking like $8000 for it. On the flip, probably no doubt he had that much in it, more probably, but you gotta draw the line! Did they tell you who painted it? Hopefully not paint masters or someone like that.

You'll get years of good looks from it I bet.

Be sure to check out the OK section here, lots of OKC guys, several Broken Arrow/Tulsa/Bixby/Claremore guys and just a few of us in Owasso (I'm in Owasso as well). You're not alone.

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

Yeah he had $11,000 in the truck...So he told me, I paid $4800! I thought was a damn good deal. I don't know who painted And don't really care. Eventually I'm going to paint it black and completely redo the interior I just wanted something that looked good while I played with it. I think I'm going to lower it 4" in the front and 6" with a belltech kit.

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

First thing I'd do is get the A/C working. And 11k, I don't doubt it. This stuff adds up very quickly. Is a truck to be proud of though.
