Looks like my trucks better looking twin. I just need to install my cab trim & cargo lamp. What brand of tonneau cover do you have...is it a Craftec?

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II

Hey everyone! New to this forum and this is my first post! Although I have been using this site heavily for information. I just bought a 1977 GMC C15 fenderside a few weeks ago. It's a work in progress and needs some work, but here it is!

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II

Took my '73 Cheyenne Shorty out for a drive in the Redwoods of Northern California. The second photo makes it look like it's jacked up in the back, the truck is level, I was parked on uneven ground.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II



Here's my 81 GMC Street Coupe. I bought it a year ago. I always had it in my head that I wanted a squarebody shortbox, but it had to be a GMC, had to be 81-82, and I would paint it black and put a 454 in it. And I just happened to find one an hour or so away, so I went and picked it up.

It was originally black and silver, but at some point it was painted. The Street Coupe decals are long gone but you can still see the outline in the paint. It needs cab corners, front inner fenders, box sides, bumpers, tailgate, grille, there's a ding in the hood, the interior sucks, one of the tanks doesn't register on the fuel gauge, some of the factory gauges don't work, some of the aftermarket gauges don't work, the horn doesn't work, the wing windows aren't waterproof and the wipers run all the time unless you pull the fuse. But outside of that it's mint. And it's a black 81 GMC with a 454, so I guess it's what I wanted.

Thanks. I am going to fix it up sometime, once I finally get a plan together. But for now I'm just enjoying rallying it around town.
