Man, you have more dern cool trucks than anyone I have ever met.

At least you have a 6.0/4l80, I am still searching. Unfortunately, I cant tear into mine right now as I just sold my Duramax truck and will be driving this everyday for now.

texasfunk · 12-01-2009, 11:05 PM

flamingbig10 · 12-01-2009, 11:18 PM

100 amp 1 wire alternator in chrome or orange powder coated

Scootin 81 C20 · 12-01-2009, 11:34 PM

Mooneye's Silver, Red, or Orange metal flake steering wheel.
Set of 16" steel wheels off of a 88-98 3/4 ton with Dick Cepeck FCII's mounted on them
New carpet, dash pad, door panels, window channels, and seat belts.
Brush guard.
Alpine V-Power amp and 2 Alpine shallow mount 10" subs. (If they even make those subs.)
And finally, free gas for the rest of my life.

GMC91 · 12-01-2009, 11:37 PM

All the parts that it will take to finsih my frame up restore on my 86. Just so I dont have to stop when I aint got money.

mwooten92 · 12-02-2009, 12:46 AM

85 c-10 swb

Black OEM dash pad
Custom gauges
Bucket Seats and console
85' Grille
Chrome moldings
new taillights
front chrome bumper
20" Coys
a 3/4 Drop =)

Driveway Dreams · 12-02-2009, 01:36 AM

Mine is simple:
A couple patch panels
Sport bumper
Materials for painting it
Interior pieces
New glass all around
New wheels

BIG10 · 12-02-2009, 02:26 AM

I'd like a 6.0/4L80
All new interior trim pieces
New smooth rear window
My spare set of rallies powder coated
A set of 255/70 BFG Radial T/A's
A new receiver hitch

But, I'd settle for the parts to rebuild the front end including ball joints, tie rod ends, all new bushings and shocks.

However, since I have a two week old baby, a step-daughter in college and not much work lately I'll probaby end up with socks, underwear and a box of Little Debbie cup cakes.
