its that deep dish look that gets me,,, nice colors on the truck

Re: Let's see the 8 lug wheels

Along the lines of special-k's old truck here is my first ever vehicle. My first 72, with 16.5x10 turbines and 38" Ground Hawgs. My dearly missed dad is in the picture. Truck rode like a tank with "soft ride" lift . I still loved the truck at the time. Will have to wait and see my shortbed build on the 17x10 slots with 37's.

Re: Let's see the 8 lug wheels

Here's a truck I got a little while ago and am planning to keep the original paint, fix the rust, lift it more and make it look like an early 90s built truck.

Re: Let's see the 8 lug wheels

I miss my C20 Super. The wheels were the only cosmetic in excellent shape. I had them blasted, then I polished the spokes, and someone clear powder coat.

I developed an assembly information kit for restoring my truck from nuts and bolts. It's written in Assy. order, short & simple, packed with all OEM hardware ID; castings; part ID; 100s of part numbers; wiring simple - Resource, and trivial too.

Much info. applies to all 67-72 GM, A/C vehicles, esp. trucks W/O saying. Full search ability, including to 700+ images of illus., parts, charts, Assy., points of interest, cab, bed, & front clip cart plans- Specials and cores were serviced out and R excluded e.g. front/rear glass, body/paint, engine core, rebuilt hinges, steering box, trans, etc.

The project was in-line with long former professions developing process, policy, specs, demo, written for novices, admin., policy, engineers, development, systems & test - Public & govt 2, gross. Sell soft copy cheaply, PM if interested.
