Hey this is my first car/truck I never got around to posting anything about it. It's an 86 silverado, put split exaust flowmasters on it, just got it back from paint a few weeks ago, my painter is working on the tailgate which has the chevrolet cut out with plexiglass and leds behind it, have some plans just waiting for time and money, hope you enjoy.

crawdad · 10-06-2006, 05:05 PM

That's one sweet looking stepbaby.

72Levi · 10-06-2006, 05:11 PM

I like the stepsides and esp your color!

Southedisto · 10-06-2006, 05:13 PM

That is my all time favorite body style for that generation truck. Sweet color also.

Slonaker · 10-06-2006, 08:53 PM

That's really nice. It would look good dropped a little bit, if you are into that sort of thing...

anscwi · 10-06-2006, 09:34 PM

Texasdeere · 10-06-2006, 09:54 PM

6772fan · 10-06-2006, 10:15 PM

84slopwaggin · 10-06-2006, 10:28 PM

Yeah boy, nice truck there. Thats a great first ride for anybody.

mySAVIOReigns · 10-06-2006, 11:52 PM

I noticed your bed is scraped clean, you gonna put a lining on it? Good idea if you do

Grande Rojo · 10-07-2006, 09:46 PM

Nice stepside!!!!

pcmcobra · 10-07-2006, 09:56 PM

sweet ride, put the drop on it...

project1971 · 10-07-2006, 11:04 PM

Good looking truck! I know why my son wants one so badly!

anscwi · 10-08-2006, 01:07 PM

yeah lining is going on with the new tailgate

boxrodz · 10-08-2006, 01:30 PM

It's looking nice...

Should look good with a drop as well. I'm guessin' wheels are in order...

BTW, are you missing some lugnuts? ...maybe it's just the angle.

anscwi · 10-08-2006, 02:24 PM

oh that makes me so happy looks great, not missing lugs but wheels are in order. how much of a drop is that?

watahyahknow · 10-08-2006, 07:15 PM

verry nice looking truck mine is from the same year but a longbed fleetside and its realy rusty , looking at the pics getting me inspired though

Eyegore · 10-09-2006, 12:51 AM

It's a straight 5" drop (5" in front/5" in rear). I tried to drop the rear a bit more, but lost the rake. It ended up with a Cali-roll. But, it may have been the angle/illusion of the pic.

bigblock73 · 10-09-2006, 08:06 AM

Sweet truck!!

BTW - I like the Willys wagon in the background too...very cool.

anscwi · 10-09-2006, 04:08 PM

sweet, the willys is my little brothers project it was going to be mine but i chose the silverado as my project instead.

boatpuller · 10-09-2006, 08:48 PM
