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

here's my 81

Don't have many pictures showing the rust and what not. Just got a cab as well as other parts, hopefully getting the body all straight and ready to go by the end of next summer!

84 lowered 5 in the rear, 3 in the front. Just dropped a fresh 383 stroker, turbo 350 tranny w/ stage 2 shift kit and 3:73 detroit ture trac rear gears into it. future mods include: one piece side windows and auto meter cobalt gauges that have been purchased just need the time this winter to put them in!!
