Re: Red Rocker Pictures

I can't find any that you haven't already posted, but I heard you were returning it back to it show state. What does it look like now?

Re: Red Rocker Pictures

That interior was the topic of much debate at one time. Definitly one of the trcks that helped bring the square bodies into th custom scene, and it's still a stunning truck.

Re: Red Rocker Pictures

Hey guys thanks for the responses. I have contacted Travis already ofcoarse. He is the way i found the truck. I actually called him the second i seen it arrive on the trailer. He is super busy with SEMA right now, so ill wait abit. He says he would send personal pictures too.
AS far as the state of the truck, it is the way it was since it was built. The only things that are different is the wiper cowl isnt shaved. The second owner put a normal one on so he could run wipers for legal reasons. I plan to get a shaved one made for it. There were some decals from the audio shop that owned it on the back window, so i took them all off and put on the correct Hills Hot Rods logos.
Here are some pics of when i picked it up and how it sits now:

Re: Red Rocker Pictures

It doesnt have factory seat belts, but it does have lap belts. It looks like they tried to hide them in the feature. Their cool, but you cant toss them around or youll risk hittin something. I have already had them slip out the door jam once... it could have ended pretty badly if i didnt notice!

Re: Red Rocker Pictures

Do you have any pics you can post of the suspension and frame please? Also, would you mind posting any pics of the under hood area. Looking for more inner fender ideas. I really hope my truck will be half that nice one day.

I've been trying to find more pics too. I found those pics from googleing red rocker/truckin'. the whole article from truckin magazine came up. It shows the whole buildup of the truck from start to finish. check it out. awesome.

Re: Red Rocker Pictures

Dont worry 80chevyshortbox , youll see it plenty!
Ofcoarse I have seen every picture from the mags and Truckins website. I appreciate you lettin me know though!
1972Supercheyenne, I havent got any pics of the underside yet. Its brutally dirty and i didnt have time before winter struck to get it on a hoist to clean. Its sittin in a car museum right now, so i cant really clean it there. Its pretty simple underneath though. All black with some stainless parts. Parrallel 4 link with sleeve bags. Stock control arms with the airride coolride kit in the font. As for under the hood pics, here ya go:
