Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!

You'd be surprised what people like 67cheby (aka Mike) will spend on their trucks.

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!

Oh no, I wouldn't be surprised at all. There are a lot of trucks turned into rolling and loud artwork on this board. This thread alone is a great demonstration of that fact.

and some heavy duty parts

OH.... and a 3/4 ton driveshaft with 1350 u-joints and the big carrier bearing .... I can get pictures if someone wants them

Who can argue with that kind of advice? So, I did:

Custom console & Interior. The thing about this truck is I am the only person that has ever turned a wrench, sewed, welded, or tuned it so I can truly say IT'S MINE! When I needed something for it like AC brackets, seat mounts, exhaust etc I made it. It just doesn't matter what you start with or how much you put into it...make it yours by making as much of the stuff you need rather than running out and buying some doodad for it. You'll like the results much more.

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!

Well now, Um my frame is completely custom, a few things on the body, but I would say my frame is the most changed. But then Havoc is not close to stock anymore.
