Nice truck. My father is from Guatemala City, the whole family went on vacation there 2 years ago. It was fun to see where he grew up.

I've actually been there five times over the last 15 years. We usually stay in Antigua. I've visited Lago de Atitlan and did a walking tour of Tikal. Beautiful country

I know this is not our year trucks or blazers but the wheels are some what era correct. Had found my son a set and powder coated them for him for this past Christmas and then just got tires for him for his birthday and he finally got them on. Still waiting on the caps.

Yeah, I feel you on that and really dig it. I'm doing the same thing on my Transam only on a slightly smaller scale.

6 lug 16.5x6.0 is my wheel of choice. I haven't come across another set. Anyone else come across a set of these gm wheels.

Love the direction you've taken with this truck! Are those bias ply tires?

Yes they are bias. I like the old school look.

I figured they had to be. I have yet to see a radial that captures that bias look. Looks terrific!

Old thread, but I really like the way your truck sits and the wheels the way they are. Also the color with the natural patina.
