i really love the last truck

Re: Let's see some 73-87 1 Ton Dually Pictures!
 

My 78 was a painted cap originally. I think the 5.7 diesels started around 78, and the 6.2 around 82.

Re: Let's see some 73-87 1 Ton Dually Pictures!
 

any one flipped a rear that has the casted spring perches?

Re: Let's see some 73-87 1 Ton Dually Pictures!

Re: Let's see some 73-87 1 Ton Dually Pictures!
 

Thanks...
She didn't start off that way.. Factory color was midnight blue if I remember correctly.. I still have the factory window sticker. I painted it white almost 15 years ago.. Then bought it from the original owner a few years later..

When I'm done with all the mechanicals, It's going it to get stripped and painted the same White that is on the new 2014 corvette.

I just picked up a HT502 crate engine for it.. After I swap it out, it's going to get painted... Can't wait.. LOL

Here is a different one, it's a 1982 GMC K3500.
It started life as an USAir-Force Ambulance in Iceland, driven by a medic from Alaska, as I found in the papers and pictures in between the seat cushion. I bought it in England, or better said I traded it for a ex Royal AirForce Bombardier Bombi which was used as a mosquito sprayer somewhere on an island in the Pacific, as was told to me.
It had a 350 V8 with a TH400 transmission with NP 205, part time 4x4. it used to have a huge winch driven by the PTO but the English owner took it off and I have no idea what I need to replace it with.

I live in the Netherlands, Europe and I have changed the truck from Ambulance to a off-road camper. As seen on one of the pictures I made some sort of slide-out which is my bed so I have a little more space in the inside, just enough to sleep, wash and cook...
The original paint was OD green but I painted it in MERDC camouflage which I like better. The many add-ons are some kind of jokes to fool a little around 'cause we're not really liked since it is an army kind vehicle. I use it for camping and offroading.

Re: Let's see some 73-87 1 Ton Dually Pictures!
 

Been awhile since I've been on here, but here's one of my 85 GMC.

Dude, that needs either a full-house drag boat or a Super Modified on an open trailer behind it. Love love love it!:devil:

Re: Let's see some 73-87 1 Ton Dually Pictures!
 

Thanks, no boat or super modified, but we did haul a 32' enclosed trailer with our gasser in it.

Re: Let's see some 73-87 1 Ton Dually Pictures!
 

that truck cleaned up good, im gonna miss drooling over it when it went down the road!

Re: Let's see some 73-87 1 Ton Dually Pictures!
 

I have had some guys messaging me on another site asking if my K30's are for sale. I told them they had to be bought as a pair for $8500 if they wanted them or I could start taking the wheels and maybe the good off and drop a little. Don't really want to sell them but if they want them then that is what it was. I would just turn around and go find me another one.

Re: Let's see some 73-87 1 Ton Dually Pictures!
 

I just found this thread, and there are some amazing rigs on here! Here are a few pics of my six-wheeled beauty. The first one was shortly after I bought it. The second one is after I made a slight bumper upgrade, and the last two are of it doing some winter working/playing.

Re: Let's see some 73-87 1 Ton Dually Pictures!
 

Welcome to the forum! Good lookin rig. Don't be a stranger. Jump in anytime.

Re: Let's see some 73-87 1 Ton Dually Pictures!
 

Thanks! That is a mighty fine looking truck you have there, too! That is sort of what I would like mine to look like as far as the lift goes. What kind of height are you running in that?

Re: Let's see some 73-87 1 Ton Dually Pictures!
 

That thing is amazing! You don't see many that are THAT nice from that particular vintage. What size are those tires? They are like a perfect fit for that stance!
