I recently purchased a 1988 v30 crew cab dually that was converted to a carbed big block. I've always been a big fan of these trucks but have never owned one.

I'm having a lot of conflict with what I want to do with it though. I'd really like to make it a crew short SRW truck. I have two axles ready to go in, lockers gears crossover steering and all. Thinking about a small 4" lift and some military style 37's on the h1 wheels I have. part of me says leave it dually...

Would like to hear yalls thoughts.
Here's the rig...

Keep it a dually and make it work

I would keep it a dually, they're just so much harder to find especially a crew cab 4x4. Just find you some 16.5 dually wheels to fit the 37" hummer tires then put the 4" lift on it and trim the front fenders to fit like johnnypop's trucks. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...2&postcount=24

I may be a little biased as well... since that's what I'm gonna do with my truck.

It was that, removed it and then went stock

You could probably sell it on here if you become a supporting member, there's some people on here that like those.

I did some research and had no luck,well it fell off due to being wrecked or non registered....It was my dads...if anything I would like to find the sleeper....I'D PAY BIG BUCKS TO FIND THAT SLEEPER.

1badgmc · 12-11-2012, 08:53 AM

I like the composite headlights. Are those from a Caprice?

NewType72 · 12-11-2012, 11:18 AM

Thank you truck was painted back in 1992 as was the grill very surprised it doesn't have one chip in it gotta love single stage paint..

As for the headlights they are either caprice or celebrity

1badgmc · 12-11-2012, 12:03 PM

Celebrity may be right. Going back and looking at it, they don't look so over-sized in relation to the parking lights like Caprice lights.

NewType72 · 12-11-2012, 12:04 PM

Celebrity sounds more correct when I recall the story on them
