flamingbig10 · 09-30-2008, 11:03 PM

spudz · 09-30-2008, 11:59 PM

first off...beautiful truck.... really nice.....Glad to see people doing quality builds.. I wish I could have one that nice.....second.... I honestly dont think the GMC grill is very atractive.

The do great work, don't they? I was there several weeks back getting a new exhaust put on my Blazer. They stare and bend until it's perfectly symmetrical/even and the price is always right.

I've got a new truck I need to take to him.

Its looking good.

**lolife99** · 10-01-2008, 11:58 AM

I vote for the 89-91 Chevrolet grill. I know everyone has it,... but I like it.

I think that with the molding and the GMC grill, it will make people that are not in the know if GM really did may one of this from the factory.

Awsome truck, your grill and tailgate/bumper treatment is the way I went on my old dually in the mid 90's, except that you finished yours....I never got the solid band and the handle flipped...

bigblock73 · 10-02-2008, 11:40 PM

The truck looks fantastic, I am very impressed! Good job.

**lolife99** · 10-03-2008, 09:57 PM

Hey bucket,... how about some more pics. Dowlings is long gone,... but that is a cool tailgate logo! Actually there is no Chevrolet dealership in Montgomery City anymore. Jeff's (hot trux) grandfather actually use to sell new Chevrolets from the garage Hot Trux still works at. Small world.

i agree, this weekend i did lower the front down about 3/4 in and raise up the rear about 1 in to get to sit level. this is as low as i can go in front with the wheels i have.
