Nice, that pic looks good.

It had snow tires on it then, that's why we bought new wheels and tires. You should try one of the newer ones with the chrome wheels and white letter tires on it.

If you can't use thoose I have more and can get more.

I'd really appreciate it. I'd love to drop it and love seeing the dropped/lowered trucks on here.

My car is the one with the 2" lowering coils in the front, and the rear of course got a 1" lift, gotta have that redneck rake :D The truck is actually fairly level, and the coils are some weird ones as the whole thing sits higher than any other 2wd half-ton I've seen, yet they are sooo rusted out that I bet they have been in there longer than I have been around... now here's the weird thing - my truck is a normal half-ton, and not a "Big 10", and it originally came with a 250 six-line and a 3-spd stick - if now with the much heavier 350-350 combo the tired springs still manage to keep it so high, back in the days when new poor thing must have been riding on its upper bump-stops! Here's a fairly recent pic of it, and those are 32s in the front and 33s in the rear:

Dropped on mudders with wooden side rails. That's quite the chop to go out on.

I, for one, enjoy the chops.

Very nice! I like the 89-91 grilles in these trucks. I have one for my 86 if I ever get around to tearing it apart. Right now my truck has working A/C with R-12 freon in it and I hate to take it apart until either the A/C stops blowing cold or my wimpy 305 gives up. When I do take mine apart I'm dumping my 305 for a built 350 that I have waiting on my engine stand ready to go into it's new home

I have owned my truck for over 3 years and figured that I'd lose the charge on my A/C by now so that I'd have a reason to tear it apart, but she's still going strong! ...Joe

lmfao, that's awesome :lol: I actually have a photoshop file of my truck with the different layers, so I can lower it as much as I please, but funny thing is if I ever do something of that sort I'm gonna be driving only in a straight line cause there ain't no way those mud-slingers up front clear the fenders if I try to turn :hm:
