Been a busy bee. That time of the year. I hope to spend some time searching soon. But as always please post'em up if you got some to post. I'd like some S10 stuff as well. I know there's a bunch there to be had. Also I'd like to see some more '88 and on trucks as well. So let's get crackin.

There's some really creative folks on here doing really good work with a really limited budget. Sometimes it isn't the cost it's more of the drive in the person.

Did you check out Alex's '64 lately? Very little money and really cool!!

rusty76 07-10-2014 02:54 PM

Re: Low Buck Build Threads Help or LBBTH
 
Oh yeah I check in daily.....or at least when he posts up. I actually check that side of the forum daily. So many cool trucks being built. I get so excited when he and yourself post up stuff you've been working on. The quality is top notch. Alex's truck is really coming along nicely. I'm telling you guys if you haven't checked out his build or haven't checked in awhile you have no idea what you are missing. He's truly an inspiration for all of us, not just some. Take the time and look through his build. If you have questions he's always glad to answer them as well. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=446527 I'll throw up a link to his build again so that you can access it quickly now. Just go and check it out!!!

Re: Low Buck Build Threads Help or LBBTH
 
I will be looking and checking in.

Re: Low Buck Build Threads Help or LBBTH
 
Alright, but once this rig is done, I think I may stop taking these trucks apart for a while or until I break mine again.

Re: Low Buck Build Threads Help or LBBTH
 
That's were all the fun begins... You get out there and you drive'em you know. That's what they were meant to do.

rusty76 07-27-2014 06:25 PM

Re: Low Buck Build Threads Help or LBBTH
 
I'm still digging away. If you haven't looked in on some of these builds in awhile or you haven't took the time to check them out you really should. A lot of these trucks are on going and have a lot of cool stuff being done. You need to be checking them out.

RoughKuntry 07-29-2014 06:05 PM

Re: Low Buck Build Threads Help or LBBTH
 
Well throw them up and I'll check them out, We found out that the 73 4x4 isnt a 3/4 ton I just dropped another 500 into the rear axle and its now a 1 ton 4x4 lol, I have 13 inch drum brakes in the rear with 13 disc brakes up front :D better stopping power. I am trying to get ahold of a 396 or another 350 v8 for my truck.

rusty76 07-29-2014 06:13 PM

Re: Low Buck Build Threads Help or LBBTH
 
Will do. It's been slow for me, but I do hope to get a few up soon.... The more others post up the better this will go. I still need help with this. There's tons of builds to go through. So if you got'em like my buddy T.Rokk post'em. Thanks T.Rokk for looking in and checking in!
