Re: How about some pictures of '73-'87 short beds

OK. I've got two for ya! The red '80 was mine in Hawaii. The yellow one was one a won on ebay. The night I won the auction, it was stolen and wrecked...sigh. That's ok though, God worked it out with a 69 C-10.

Re: How about some pictures of '73-'87 short beds

Looks like you need a new front air deflector. Check out a Keystone retailer. They got them for around $15 bucks. Nice truck by the way.

Re: How about some pictures of '73-'87 short beds

My suggestion is slam it with a dropmember and get some sweet coys or CL205s in 20/22s

Nice original truck there.

Re: How about some pictures of '73-'87 short beds

Hell yeah! Dont touch any thign but the suspension...the drop member would be great and a rear air ride would be sweet.For wheels id try some 20" budnik fomosa's or billet specailties vin-tech dish in the same size. coys are cool but I like the budniks! Sweet truck!

Nice start for a project! I'd drop it 5-6", install some FACTORY Ralleys with the caps and trim rings, and install a big block!

Oh, and a new bumper......he he
