Re: 1972 Cheyenne Super 400 truck Zero Rust

Now that is what I'm talking about. Perfect mix. Bad to the bone chassis and a killer cab and sheet metal. Hope to see it when it's finished.

Don't be coming down here and stealing trucks from Iowa. That is an amazing shortbed you are building. I love the old school injection and the steam rollers for tires out back.

Re: 1972 Cheyenne Super 400 truck Zero Rust

Off topic, but I couldn't help but to notice that nice 4x4 shorty in the background of some of those pics. I was wondering what kind of lift and size of tires you have on it?

Would it be possible to shorten the velocity stacks? Using a 2" cowl hood would keep the "sleeper" look going......
