84slopwaggin · 03-07-2007, 03:27 PM

Now thats a clean sexy blue pickup.

CoyoteCustoms · 03-08-2007, 08:13 PM

Here is mine that I am working on. I have it tore down now with full air ride and doing all the metal work for new paint and interior. Still undecided on wheels.

When I got it. I have had it since I was 14.

Last year. Rat Rod Style.

Last Month. Air Ride but still Rat Rod. I want a clean custom now not a junker.

Thanks,
Jason

I've seen it @ several local shows. It's nicer than anything I own but for some reason it just doesn't 'flow' for me.

gflo383 · 03-11-2007, 08:34 PM

rchadhaney, do you have a link to the ebay add? what trans is in it? the 4L60 or 4L80? or is it a T5 or something??

is the engine a 4.8 5.3 or a 6.0? i thought about doing a 5.3 swap in my truck, good gas mileage compared to the 454 and plenty of power!

boatpuller · 03-11-2007, 10:54 PM

Do you mean the sticker on the door? it says Bakker Towing with an eagle on it that holds a chain it its claws.

On the fender i have been useing photoshop to erase some other ugly stickers that i have removed for real now.
and the side markers were broken so i have done a little photoshop over them.

but i have fixed them now! that pickture is 2 years old.

Srubydo1986 · 03-16-2007, 12:07 PM

a cool just curious. Although i do like the big sticker on the side. Idont know why i just like the logo design it trucks. Just like the one at the top with the custom logo.
