I thought '73s had no drip rails. I agree, too bad it's not a short.

Jonboy · 10-13-2008, 08:25 AM

Wow. Something that nice would make my Cadillac sleep outside.

bigblock73 · 10-13-2008, 01:38 PM

Hahah, she doesn't read the board.

I would never jeapordize my marriage for this, but the though did cross my mind briefly...

In '73, drip rails were a dealer add-on. I believe they were glued on... except for the Cheyenne Super, they had drip rails...I think...

That's an awesome truck, by the way... Very seventies!

johnboyon20s · 10-14-2008, 12:31 PM

I am pretty sure there were no drip rails in 73 , optional in 74 , and went into full production in 75 . I am sure that they were added at some point by owners noticing all of their friends that had them stayed dry in the rain .

You are correct sir.

The ONLY thing I don't like about that truck are the side view mirrors. I have them on my truck and when I install my new doors, those mirrors are history.
