Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
Put the wheels from my 61 Impala on today. Front tires are too small. I think I'm going to move the ones on the back to the front and buy bigger tires for the rear. Anyone know a good rear tire size for an 18" rim?

Nice 86 shorty, nice to have the hood already.
Mine is an 86 shorty too but 4wd.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
Not sure what it is about this color blue but I like it when the paint is a little faded like this one is verse a new shiny paint. It just has that wear factor that makes me like it all that much more.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
So nice group of cool trucks but how do you drive all of them, 1 a day like vitamins, must be hard to choose which one.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
It's a 2.5/4 with 235/75/15s on it. 15x8s. I'm wanting some wider tires on it, but these are still new

Go with a Drop Member to narrow up the width, then maybe you could drive it with the wheels tucked....

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
newbie here, Im glad I found this site. I just purchased this 79 BIG10, to bring back the memories of the one I had in high school. All original except paint and exhaust, 34,000 orig miles, as far as I can tell all looks accurate.
Any insight, comments, etc welcome as I am just learning about these trucks. Thanks |

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
There are a few pieces that need to be replaced, nothing major. Just want to enjoy a cruise every now and then with her. My wife and I haven't had a bench seat since high school... fun fun!Of course if the right offer comes along she may get a new owner.
