My '85 LS/T56 soon to be pro-touring truck. When I first LS'd it with rallies, then as it sits now and then the ultimate goal with full suspension and Forgelines

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

I figured so on the front inners, wasn't sure on the ac parts of it how close it would be, that would take quite a drop though but would look the best to tuck them all you can to actually fit the look of the truck, good luck, keep us posted.

Your right Chaplain, everyone has their own taste. Just saying it isn't mine, I go around & round with my brother all the time. He likes this sort of stuff and I don't. He needs to get his own truck and keep his eyes off mine, LOL.

Definitely keeping the patina/multilayered paint. The truck was a Gordon County service truck and was originally dark yellow. It's clearly been painted a few times. If i ever paint it, it will be white. Really dig the white.

Just dropped it 4.5/6 on Friday. It's already settled some in the front. The driver's side was a little high. Next up some motor refresh/upgrades.

Took the trucks first big trip today (250 miles round trip) with about 800 pounds in the bed. Managed to put down 14.2 mpg as well. Ran great no problems!

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

Well where we live in Northern Canada has been exceptionally warm weather, that is until today, dropped right off and now 3-4" of snow, just like winter again. Forcast is snow for another 24hrs or so, oh well will appreciate spring more when it comes. Cool pic of the truck, especially since the truck is so nice, enjoy it.
