Hey Bertland how much have you lowered your truck and how did you do it? Thanks.

Dave C · 05-31-2011, 03:17 PM

came across these on NOTSTOCK Photography's facebook page. Not sure if these are guys on the board and saw the brown one in Spring/Humble, TX (north houston) a few weeks ago. looks like these were taken off 290 out towards college station. could be wrong

anyone know whos they are?

RFOX · 05-31-2011, 03:49 PM

I love the brown on tan reminds me of my 4x4 82 looks sweet!

Flat 10 · 06-03-2011, 05:11 PM

No build thread

I dont no much about the truck as far as the build goes. I bought from a buddy that traded it for his blazer. He and another friend put in a bunch of work fixing odds and ends. Once I start the redo ill be sure to start a thread. Im going to drive how it is and then redo some things that im not particularly fond of, along with my own spin.
IF ANYBODY NOS ANY HISTORY OF THIS TRUCK I WOULD LIKE TO NO.

Jamie McDavid · 06-03-2011, 11:20 PM

Not the best pic but here it is my 79 GMC Sierra. Just got finished lowering it this week. Better pics to come!

Beautiful stepside Wiggins.

wiggins · 06-07-2011, 10:10 AM

Thanks it was basically a one owner, guy had it since 83'. I am going threw it now getting it more road worthy. Going to to it back more stock looking with some steel rally rims and some skinnier taller tires. May get rid of those bed rails as well cant decide on them.

67Step · 06-07-2011, 10:15 AM

It looks nice as it is. But that is the cool part about the old Chevy trucks. It really doesn't matter what you put on them, they look good!!

mikep87swb · 06-07-2011, 11:48 AM

Here are just a few crappy cell pics of my truck I will post better ones next time

Just back from the paint shop was stock when i bought it 8 yrs ago.....

Enjoy

83_shortwide · 06-07-2011, 12:22 PM

Nice truck mikep! That paint looks flippin' awesome! What color is that exactly, may I ask?

84SierraClassic · 06-07-2011, 02:33 PM

Love the color with the diamond plate kick plates, just awesome. I too would like to know what color that is exactly. That CBR is ruining that last photo though.

mikep87swb · 06-07-2011, 03:08 PM

Thanks Shortwide and 84SC,

The color is Medium Graphite Metallic I beleive it's called and it's from dare I say a dodge late model pickup.

i know i know but i get so many compliments on it so far and the paint is hardly cured

lol

The diamond plates I made myself... I work part time at a fab shop for industrial machines and i have access to sheet diamond plate, so i made a paper template and just cut it out on the band saw....

I will try to get some better pictures up once I grap my better camera....

Thanks for all the great comments keep them coming...

P.S. 84SC as you can see I ignored the comment about the CBR hahaha lol the bike is my DD actually

17,000 miles

HAH, well that color looks much better on a Chevy that's for sure. What would look cool on your truck mikep87swb is rocker panel trim in diamond plate.
