Ohchilit, Very nice!!! Looks a little like mine (page 4). I really like the original grill, which mine does not have, but will soon. Can you tell me about your wheels & tires, I really LOVE those!!

Thank you sir! The wheels are REV100 CLASSIC and are 20x8 front and 20x10 rear. Tires are nitto420 with 255/45/20 and 285/50/20 rear

Here are a couple of mine.
It's a 1977 Silverado C/10 built in Fremont Ca. Sold in San Rafael Ca. She is still sporting her original paint and has only 110,000 on the odometer. I am the 2nd owner. The original owner used to show it till his death in 2006 his wife gave it to her son in law, who drove a year till he blew the trans then is sat till I bought it 6 months ago. I am going to bring her back to her street rod days of circa. 1980. last photo is the day I got her home.

This is what I started out with a while back - '87 GMC the PO had totally re-badged into a Chevy, with a 50 foot'er paint job and blue interior:

I wanted something a bit different, and, while it's not done just yet (and it's pretty dirty), this is the direction I took:

Oh, yeah - that nasty chin spoiler was reinstalled by mistake, and is coming off...

Nice! does the bed still have the wood?

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
 

That's a tight looking truck! I got an '86 that's about to get a 4/6 drop and new wheels/tires. Your truck's stance is what I'm looking for. But I'm still not quite sure of the wheel backspacing. What's the b/s on yours?

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
 

Here is my 83 Chevy it has the old L6 for now it is my project truck, i bought it from my Brother who is also a member on here Billy81.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
 

I know what I'd do with that, drop it and drive it. Cool truck.

Am I the only one that looks a bit strange a car that really sits on the ground?. To me it look like the suspension broke ...Well everyone has their own taste ;-)

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
 

I have to agree. My brother wants me to "Bag" mine, but I absolutely refuse. I think it looks silly. I can't fathom spending money on that and those wheels & tires when obviously the money could be spend on things it really needs. But hey, thats just me.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
 

I also like the patina look!

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
 

Your right Chaplain, everyone has their own taste. Just saying it isn't mine, I go around & round with my brother all the time. He likes this sort of stuff and I don't. He needs to get his own truck and keep his eyes off mine, LOL.

Welcome to the site jchurchill!!

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
 

Welcome brother....this site is actually pretty good..lots of info...

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
 

Looks good brother....

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
 

I tend to like the ability to do this-whether I would ever do it if I had the ability to or not. But Hey! Its a great emergency brake! And you'll never have it twed on you.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
 

Yeah... dont fix the rust man.... looks sweet the way it is

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
 

@ ccreddell : that's very tru ;-)

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
 

Well that depends on where you park it! I have heard of tow truck drivers in the Ghetto parts of Pittsburgh who just drag the vehicle to the impund lot if they cant get it on the bed or in the air.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
 

Nice trucks. Can't get my pictures to show up.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds Part II
 

Yep...that is cool, not for where I live but cool, sure not like the same, same as what everyone else has, thumbs up to you man.:cool:
