Stich-- That trucks so sweet. I think you nailed the stance. What size tires you running? Again the trucks looking great.

I LOVE that truck. Possibly my favorite 80's shortbed I've ever seen. What size lift/tires are you running?

Here's a buddies and his brothers trucks. green one is '76(i think) with 46" Mickey's, and the white one is a '78 with 37" pro-comp's.

*Stitch* · 03-19-2011, 11:11 PM

lowered the truck even more than before so I figured I'd post some pics up for you fellas...I don't think I can go any lower without bagging it...I also don't think I could be any happier with the way it's shaping up...

Reziel_1983 · 03-20-2011, 12:49 AM

That looks great! Love the way it looks that low with the wheels.

Thanks! Here are some pics of the interior and the engine bay. The interior is in good shape all except for the worn out bench seat. I just ordered a new seat cover and door inserts Friday to freshen up the interior. Hopefully they will all be back sometime this week. My upholstery shop is going to redo the seat foam and install the seat cover all for $100. The engine is the original stock 305 with 135k miles and still runs smooth as butter. It will stay until it gives me reason to swap engines. For now this is a great truck to roll slow motion with the windows down and just enjoy life.

I have no idea but hopefully I will know pretty soon. The guy that painted it is supposed to give me some paint to do some tough up with.

rozier911 · 03-23-2011, 07:24 AM

@BigMike608 Where did you get that dash cover from? What is that called? I'd like to recover my dash but a cover like that would be fine for me.

It's made by a company name Dash Design. It was on the truck when I bought it, I have no idea where the previous owner purchased it. Sorry I couldn't be more help
