I second this. The 5th picture with the wheel tucked under the bed is by far my favorite. Plus it's a little different then the norm.

No front runner the idea behind this truck is to some what stay with stock parts. I know the intake is not stock but with a 400 hp motor there is no need for a high dollar front runner.

I agree the issue is I have to convert everything over to 5 on 4.75 which sucks

Re: Cheap trick patina 70

I like the Gassers... They'd be bada$$ on my '77 T/A...I'd sure be interested in them if you decided to go another direction.

I dig the motor setup too

Re: Cheap trick patina 70

Even though you would have to mess with the 5" bolt pattern the gassers have a better overall look to them. Gives the truck a very unique look...

Satin would be cool but I think polished would look better on the patina. Motor looks great!

Re: Cheap trick patina 70

I really like the gassers. Makes me think I want those on mine, but hearing about the bolt pattern issue, I don't think I'd go that route. They do look really good though.

Re: Cheap trick patina 70

I'm throwing my vote in for the brushed Intros and brushed trim. It would be different than all bling like I mostly see.

Re: Cheap trick patina 70

I like them both, but if you plan is the brushed handles, bumpers, and trim, then the gassers might look out of place unless you refinished them in a brushed look.

I agree, if the Gassers are too much polished, how about a brushed finish on the flat areas of the centers with the rest staying polished?

Re: Cheap trick patina 70

I like the "super sized" look of the stock motor. Yeh edelbrock cut and pasted their name too much but still awesome.
I vote for the Intros and the look of brushed trim - will be amazing.
Pic 5 is just a way more artistic shot and is unfair to the other photos...shows more of that badass patina look. Thanks for including us!
