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

What kind of paint did you use on those rallies? just plain silver? i wanna do mine like that in the near future. oh and nice truck!

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

Thank you all for the comments. I have a disease, never low enough. I know it is close but I think I can get another inch or close to it. My control arms drag from time to time around town and can hit pretty hard on the right bumps, but that doesn't bother me much. I used to be into slammed VW's, you have one of them on the ground you also have an extra oil pan on hand for when you smack it. :crazy: But we will see what I think about the height after I try some wheels on for size.

My drop: flipped the rear, plus shackles. Front springs & spindles. My tires are Cooper Cobra 245/60/15.

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

I'm not really a fan of the colors used on this one, but i love the '88-'98 Chevy door handles on it.

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

those are all very clean trucks. but why on earth put wheels like that on a classic chevy pick-up? :crazy: i can understand if it's lowered or bagged....but come on. 28's??
