Trvr_lumsden · 07-13-2010, 05:44 PM

Just picked it up Saturday.

TheGreenCoyote · 07-13-2010, 06:02 PM

Trvr_lumsden, I like that Blue. Nice truck.

chuckstahk · 07-14-2010, 12:23 AM

is that a 8 ft bed?

Trvr_lumsden · 07-14-2010, 10:35 AM

Yeah, it's a long bed. There ain't that many on the road. I know its the first one I have seen in Fort Worth. The bed measures 8'2". I can lay a full 4'X8' sheet of anything in there no problem. Would any of yall happen to know where I can find another wheel? I cant find them anywhere, not even a picture online.

New to this forum. Inheirated my Dad's 86 C-20. It has a 350 c.i. small block with a 4 speed and granny gear transmission. Was orginally gonna use it as a beater truck until it died but decided to try to restore. It wasn't even running when I got it. So far I put new Quadra-jet intake, Holly Carb, plugs and wires, mid 90's steering wheel, new clutch master cylinder, new ignition and door locks on it. Still have a long list and a lot of body work to do but hopefully it will get there one day.
