Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
I can't help it. It's not completely done but should be by this weekend for a car show. Here's how it sits yesterday afternoon.

Just dropped it 4.5/6 on Friday. It's already settled some in the front. The driver's side was a little high. Next up some motor refresh/upgrades. ![]()

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
hello everybody
I am Didier and I am French, my English is rather bad, excuse me therefore! I quite live in a small village in the south of France (high provence) I look this forum since many months. There are some pure beauties among all these trucks! I imported the last winter, of Oregon, a Gmc c1500 High sierra of 1979 with a motor crate 350 and TH350. He is entirely of origin (to part the motor and the wheels) I am giving him a new appearance, nothing extraordinary for the meantime. I reconditioned the cabin of my truck in 2 colors. I removed the sticks metallic decorations (I don't know the exact term) on the sides, one is going to plug the holes and to redo a simple painting with pinstripping. I changed the tissue of the bench that was used and added a good sound system. Here are some photos of my baby that perfectly purr and with which I already made many kilometers in spite of the consumption ! But if I want to roll in V8, I assume my choice! I have also 2 harleys; A shovelhead 80ci of 1983 and an electra glide 80ci of 96, I roll therefore only with old American véhicules with carburetor ... for me, they have a soul ! ![]() I am going to have quickly need of your advice, I would like to change my wheels but I have big difficulties to understand the measurements. Now some photos. [IMG] ![]() [IMG] ![]() [IMG] ![]() [IMG] ![]() |

Looks like you picked a decent truck to import. Give us a shout when you're ready to research wheel options. Glad to have you around!

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
Hi Everybody, my name is Paul and I'm new here. This is my 1977 Cheyenne Big 10, I've had it 6 years. Made here in CA, bought new by my Brothers father in law. It was always taken care of and garaged until I got it. Now it is just taken care of. It has a 350, TH350 / gear vendor. I have lurked here for a while, getting some ideas from some pretty awesome trucks. 4 link in the rear and a small static drop will be next.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
Security guy. How much drop do you have on your truck? What wheels and tire size are you running on it?

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
It's hard to remember, but the front has either 2" or the 2.5" dropped spindles and I cut one coil off the springs. I did a flip kit in the rear, no c-notch.. The rims are the Boss 338's, 20x10 rear, 20x8.5 front. Tires are 295/45r20 rear and 255/40r20 front. My next tires will be a little taller in the front. They are a little to small (for me) and gives it a little to much rake. I like a little more sidewall on the front... Hope this helps!
