here is a trick... it is top secret so dont tell anyone...if you buy one take a razor knife and cut the little bottom lip off ( the one that turns under and goes back toward the back of the truck) because if it is on there the air dam cant flex and it will crack when you run over something... mine has been abused badly and still looks good. remember dont tell anyone!

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

You know I have seen lots of rod guys use Chevy motors in their non Chevy rides. I don't think I have ever seen a Chevy with, like a Ford motor in it.

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

Thanks guys, well shes down for the count at the moment, let this guy test drive it since i had it for sell. Well he romped on it and broke the throttle cable then he left me on the side of the road with my truck in the middle of nowhere. But he did go buy me a new throttle cable and brung it to me but then left me to fix it myself.

Let this be a lesson never let somebody drive your truck
