Yea blacks nice, but our 84 is midnight blue. Our old 4x4 was black as black gets LOL.

86swb · 04-16-2007, 04:48 PM

Man, it sure looks black in the picture.

benoit454 · 04-16-2007, 06:39 PM

LOL yea crappy 35mm film. I forgot had poor quality and picture they take until my digital camera batteries died in the middle of working on the truck.

Soon as it stops raining and I get it washed I'll get some digital ones.

Now up there a ways the big 4x4 it is black, with the gold pinstripe, but the 2wd without the stripes and flares is midnight blue.

AceX · 04-16-2007, 08:35 PM

Here's mine...

I'll be sure to get some new pics once I'm done with the chasis and have cleaned it up a little...

Also, the part everyone seems to like...

Pioneer DEH880-PRS Headunit

MB Quart 5.25" Premium Components in the kick panels; MB Quart 6.5" Q-series components in the doors

10" Pioneer shallow mount subwoofers (2); ARC Audio FD4100 Amplifier hidden under bowtie (which is a removable panel)

Still to come is an ARC Audio FD600.1 Amplifier and Kinetik Cap Killer battery.

Eyegore · 04-19-2007, 09:41 PM

OK not as nice as the ones above but what do you expect for a 21 year old paint on a red truck here in phoenix, but hopefully that will change after my son gets his truck out of my garage

84_chevrolet · 04-19-2007, 06:03 PM

hiway · 04-19-2007, 06:19 PM

Srubydo1986 · 04-19-2007, 09:49 PM

i say the red truck is perfect looks great. I would be proud to drive that truck

86swb · 04-20-2007, 08:52 AM

That red truck is nice. That sun can do damage to your dash also.

Eyegore · 04-20-2007, 06:54 PM

Thanks -well 86 the only damage i have is when the idiots stole the stereo out of it, I have a dash-mat to keep the dash from being to damaged. You can see where the black primer shows through on the hood.

some bleep bleep did the same thing to my truck last april, they tore everything up. I am just now getting to replace it.

Eyegore · 04-21-2007, 12:16 AM

Yeah i'm just replacing mine also, I may have to add a metal plate around the opening, they bent it pretty bad when they pryed it out w/ a crowbar, after they popped the wing window out. My wife ahd it installed as an anniversy present, lasted one month before stolen.

can not friggen have anything....they pryed the bottom metal part of my dash out probably 10 inches, I was able to bend it back but they busted the hell out of the gauge cluster, bezel and dash. I had a dakota digital fixing to go in it, glad it didnt
