Re: How about some pictures of '73-'87 short beds
It's a cool truck, like all the chrome, and the fog lights in the bumper don't look outta place like many other models would. As for the grille, the one you have is actually way cooler than a model-correct one like mine

Re: How about some pictures of '73-'87 short beds
Thanks. I love this truck. Bought it on e-bay with no engine/trans/transfer. It had a Western snow plow bracket on the front and no bumper. I bought the new brackets and that bumper from LMC. I'm going to post a review about it on the board some day. The rest of that chrome was on it already, and I have no idea where the piece above the grill on the front of the hood came from, but I'd love to find out. Someday I have to peel all that off and re-paint.

Re: How about some pictures of '73-'87 short beds
I used DJM lower control arms and a DJM flip kit in the rear. Which came out to be a 3/5 drop.

Re: How about some pictures of '73-'87 short beds
haha.. thanks.. funny, a lot of people have said they like it the way it is .. beatup.. it's my daily driver when I'm not riding my motorcycle.. The interior is suprisingly pretty clean. The windows are tinted dark..at night you can't see in the cab at all. I need to get a new bed this one is shot. Clean up the cab with a new quarter panel and weld some holes. Get it media blasted and painted. Those are the main things.
A next door neighbor years ago had a nice swb cheyenne that I lusted over. Ever since I've been looking for one. I found this one cheap. It's got a 350 4bolt dropped in it.. .. suprising how you can rail around the corners with these trucks lowered. It's a super stiff ride .. no sway at all. When I first got it .. I was thinking oh man it needs a lot of work what was I thinking. I already have 2 motorcycle projects. That night I got it the girl I was seeing thought it was pretty cool.. liked the width of the cab.. and the couch like red seat, she wanted to have sex in it. Never questioned it after that. I love Cheyennes! |

Did you build that entire front rollpan/bumper yourself, or is there a front roll pan somewhat mass-produced for our trucks? After seeing that, my bumper all of a sudden looks really clunky and awkward.
