Re: 1987 Chevy Silverado project
 

nice work! id say weld the lights shut as well and have the whole backend of the truck smooth, that looks nice i think. and just mount the lights in the roll pan. either way im sure itll look good

Re: 1987 Chevy Silverado project
 

yea, even if the molded lights dont work, im going to use stock replacements, there are too many shaved tailight trucks, i dnt like the look personally, and i love the look of stock tails, and i'll also be running a bumper, i also dont really like the look of a rear roll pan, w/o a front one, so i'll be running bumbers front and back..thanks for the compliments by the way! :D

You know the playa lake at Quaker and the Loop doesn't count as a lake, and I know you can't be referring to Buffalo Pond.

Sweet truck by the way.

Re: 1987 Chevy Silverado project
 

LOL, I was just giving you a hard time. I grew up around Lubbock, it's home. My parents still live there.

Re: 1987 Chevy Silverado project
 

your welcome bro, but yea even your gonna keep it with the regular lights, its still gonna look boss with the welded tailgate

Re: 1987 Chevy Silverado project
 

That should help to set the truck apart nicely. Not that it will need any help. ;)

Re: 1987 Chevy Silverado project
 

Its looking good bud

Re: 1987 Chevy Silverado project
 

lol, i figured that! good to have another west texan aboard! :lol:

thanx for the compliments guys! im not trying to be totally different but want to set it apart a little, i think its going to be a good cruiser when done :D

Re: 1987 Chevy Silverado project
 

hmmm. howd i miss this one? :lol: thanx rollin! hopefully this summer u cn come down n cruise with us when theyre done!

Re: 1987 Chevy Silverado project
 

i would use led lights when glassing the taillight in its as durable as you can get so you whont have to bust them open as often
you can even even get them with the barionet fitting used in normal lights

Re: 1987 Chevy Silverado project
