Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
Well better safe, have seen rim designs change or become not available at times so for that price not a big deal. Keep us posted.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
After looking at all of these trucks, I can see that I have my work cut out for me if I want to feel "worthy" when I'm finished. Here's my 1980 C10 stepper. Stock 250 straight six, with a turbo 400 trans and a 12 bolt rear. Dropped with spindles and coils in the front, flipped in the back. 255/60-15 all around on 15x6.5 rally's (need a set of 8's for the back). Going for a really simple "dropped stock work truck" look when I'm done. Just finished the 1973 grille today. When I get the bodywork done, going to shoot it a dark hunter (or British racing) green. Got a build thread going - "my first build thread - 1980 stepside". Hope to get it back outside for some better, more current pics tomorrow...

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
This is as much of a side shot as I have right now. This is before I took it down another inch in the front. It's covered in snow now.

Not sure on the subtle changes, but noticed the back is lowered, nice truck. What running gear, small block auto.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
I can only post one pic at a time for now but I'll post a thread on this truck soon. Not much rust on it. Paint, rims, and interior coming soon in the next couple of months
