CTrow's Truck

So here's the history. I got this when I was 15 (32 now) and it was supposed to be my sweet 16 truck but Dad got carried away. It got too nice and Mom put a stop to the money spent. Well, high school came and went, college came and went, the first home came and is still here. Basically life I guess. I finally got to a point where I could pick back up and get this thing finished.

Life started out as a 70' LWB but we cut it down, put 68' nose one, and put a step side bed on. It was oiginally painted 90' S10 green. 305 Tuned port. Full Street and Performance billet engine accessories.

Plans are to switch out the step side for a fleet side, repaint it black, keep the 305 for now until I can afford a LS1. The main goal now is to get it painted and get it driveable. I may not have the interior exactly like I want but at least I can take it down the road.

Suspension will be a cool ride air in front, with air over leaf in the rear. Later I may look into a drop member with full shock waves but again, I want to get it driveable.

It will be a fun project and be a nice driver. Not daily but often enough. And remember, blacks not a color.....It's a lifestyle!
