Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
Oh man that's a bummer deal. Well if that is the pic after the spill, it looks good. If it's before at least the red of the raspberry will match the red truck!

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
Which one the rear or front? Got the rear at the salvage yard for $30.00 about two months ago!!! Got the front from Kelley's Classic Car restoration in Sparks GA. If your interested in their number contact me! Great place to get your vehicle restored! (5 Stars)

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
I would say, lowered around 4-6 would really set your truck off even a 2-4 would look good

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
Thanks guys, it's a fun project. Once I figure out my smog dilema I'll be lowering it 4/6 or so and going thru the interior. The paint is ok, it was repainted by someone who wasnt detail oriented and it kinda shows. Now that I have this truck my dad wants to sell off his 54 Chevy pro street pickup project and get another square body.

thump16
the rims came with the truck when I got it I know they are 16's and the caps have a chevy logo in the middle the previous owner told me they were rallies but original rallies did not come in 16's so I think they are aftermarket |

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
Sounds good Smoke Dog! Where did you get the chrome center for your grille?
jj_62607: Welcome to the board. Nice truck you got. What are your plans for it? |

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds
Thanks partner!!! Purchase new grill for the 86, I think!!! and pulled the white coating off of it, that's all! Got the guts from a 73 vette, headman shorties, and a little something from my builder who use to build NASCAR engine's for the top name guys from ALABAMA in the 60's-70's.
