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

I think 80 to 79 would be the same unless one has square lights and the other is round.

Now 81, is a different story.

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

I really like the curtains in the back window. My front tires are 205-60-15's BRGAFX the cowl hood might be for sale locally on CL idk yet. And Im going to stick with the 81-91 front bumper I like it alot more than the 73-80 bumper. Plus it will match my later style sport bumper in the rear.

Thanks! 2.5'' spindles and 2'' coils. Flip kit and lowering shackles set at 1''. So about 4.5/6

235/60/15 front and 255/60/15 rear. Looking to swap the rears to the front and putting 275/60 on the rear.

I was tempted to swipe a set off a motorhome I had seen going down the highway this morning.

It had three sets of 1973-91 style taillights on the back. One set all red, one set all amber and one set all clear.

I think it was a Sparta or a Monaco motorhome.

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

Bahh I was thinking the euro lights I have seen in the magazine. Never mind those clear tail lights are a totally different animal.

His truck is definately different from the norm. Who knew 17s could be pulled off so well?
actually, they were in the truck when i bought it. I dunno if they were a dealer option, or some sort of custom aftermarket option. They look professionally made, and match the interior perfectly. I had my Mom make a set for another '87 i had. I think they look sweet and are a welcomed change over the played out rear tinted or plain clear window. JMO.
