cold a/c, power steering and enough power to run down anything at anytime or cruise w/ the 700r4

nice truck
its the color of my racing bmx bike

Thanks, its 57 chevy turquoise. PPG called it Aerospace blue.

Daily drove it for about 6 yrs taking it to car shows on and off (2nd place super chevy show 1998) and then slowly made it into a play toy.
It was originally a 250 6 banger w/ a th350. that gave up the ghost around 250k miles and went through 3 engine combos as time & funds allowed. I've got some video of the truck running somewhere, it was a screamer pulled well past 6500.
DJM drop spindles i think they were 3" and 2" or 3" drop springs, shackles, hangers and a removed leaf on the rear.

Very nice .......indeed. I'm partial to step truck as I recently picked up a 89K survivor. Needs a drop, some taller skins & an upgraded seat.

Here's the shortbed I just picked up

It's my first shortbed and the reason I found this forum. I'll be posting lots of questions as I figure out how to sort this mess of a truck out.

Thanks!

Those 2 trucks were exactly what I was talking about, can't find pics of them anymore since the new Hills website was updated. If you can find some of the Red CrewCab that would be awesome!
